Do you consider yourself an audiophile?

Is all that not relevant if you run from one amp as the music should be mastered with proper mid/side business? A genuine question. I understand most (some ) of this stuff

Mid/side is a specific way of recording a signal into a stereo format (using a cardioid mic and a figure 8), the primary advantage of which is the ability to alter the stereo width at the mixing stage.

Anything you’re playing back on a normal hifi is just a stereo file, one channel for left, one for right.
