At home mainly records. Rega P6 as a player, marantz amp and totem speakers or koss esp/95x headphones.
On the go Qobuz on my phone to cayin ru7 dac and campfire Andromeda iems.
Dynaco ST-70 (stereo tube amp, mine is maybe 1960s?), 8ฮฉ tap to either Klipsch Heresy II or Vandersteen 1c speakers.
I've had the Klipschs for 20+ years, so to me they're sort of reference/completely neutral speakers. (I know Klipschs aren't everyone's cup of tea though.)
Any sufficiently high quality audio stream from my Plex or Tidal, always set to max volume in app/OS settings -> Topping D30 -> JDS Atom -> Sennheiser HD6XX.
Good enough for me.

Very loud.
Not sure if I merit being called an audiophile, but...
Huge collection of mp3s ripped from CDs. Stored locally, currently using a Unihertz Jelly Star as a glorified digital audio player, running BlackPlayer EX, which I like for it being a good mix of minimalist and giving me freedom to customize as much as I feel I need. When I'm using headphones, I want my ears uncovered so I use Shokz bone conduction headphones.
The best quality that is convenient.
On the go? Bluetooth headphones from Spotify.
At my desk? Open back sennheisers from the FLAC from the NAS, or Spotify.
in silence.
PC (MPD with Ario frontend) -> SMSL DO100 -> Rotel A11 Tribute -> KEF Q150. I'm upgrading to KEF LS50 Metas next week, can't wait.
I've got speakers for every occassion. Several in-ears, over ears, monitor phones, Bluetooth speakers, and main amp and stack. Because of this it all sits in that top of middle range to bottom of high range, else I'd be broke.
Mainly use Spotify and vinyl.
