Does anybody listen to classical music on desktop systems? I don't mean background music while playing video games or doing work at a computer. I mean actually listening attentively to, say, a Beethoven symphony or a Mozart concerto. I see picture after picture of desktop audio systems, and I wonder how it's possible for people with setups like that ever to get into classical music in any meaningful way. Sure, I listen to plenty of music in the background while I do other things, but I also listen to music with my undivided attention for long periods of time, time I find far more comfortable sitting in a nice chair or couch instead of at a desk. What's it like for the rest of you classical music lovers? Do you listen to symphonies at your desk, or is the way you listen to classical music incompatible with a desktop audio system?
