What good is having a quality setup when you are going to use it to listen to crap music. Having a quality hi-fi rig does not make you a bigger fan of THE MUSIC. A person listening to mp3s on a PC with an affordable pair of headphones is not in anyway incapable of having a varied and refined taste in music, which is that's more important.
If you're going to tell us that people aren't capable of feeling fulfillment from music by listening to it on their iPods or smartphones then you are full of pretentious rubbish. Not to say that I'm against good sound quality, I have a decent enough hi-fi rig, some decent speakers and some decent headphones. But I'd happily listen to music on my laptop or iPod just as much as long as I'm listening to something really great.
