That mercury-bath turntable is pretty crazy! I guess people always find a way to screw up any endevour that started out with a simple and promising idea. Take Buddhism; the original ideas were very reasonable and practical - be hygenic, be nice, try not to do foolish things etc. That became very elaborate shrines and all kinds of mystical rituals, then a whole industry is built on top of it. (funny, but maybe Nietszche was opposite; his were very sophisticated and powerful ideas that got dumbed down until no one takes him seriously without realizing after Plato we have nothing but Nietszche). Good audio can help us enjoy the music better, to discover things we missed when we were just listening to internet radio; is alll very worthwhile but if you do not have your own sonic compass the sharks will rob you blind.
