"Kind of Blue" is one of the most transparent recordings I have ever heard. Doesn't sound completely fucked at all. Also, digital distortion is not harmonic distortion. That's why you preferably don't want to have it on a recording (unless you have a very specific taste or want your music to glitch or sound robotic or whatever). Anyway, most sources sound better through a superior playback system than through an inferior one. I have no problem listenings to the Wiper's "Youth of America" through a proper HiFi. There might be some odd exceptions that sound better through a Tivoli mono speaker, but those are far and few between. So I wouldn't let that be my concern while designing the best playback system I can. I definitely wouldn't call it a problem.
