Solution 2:
Musicophile — ODO; seems close to the meaning.
n. A music lover.
Audiophile — ODO; is a bit distant though.
n. informal A hi-fi enthusiast.
"it puts professional studio sound within the reach of the audiophile"
Solution 3:
I'd stick with music lover - it's simple and unpretentious. Using a word ending in -phile is fine when it's in common usage, like bibliophile, but musicophile just feels a little affected.
