There's also the sensitivy to the temporal (i.e. timing) elements of the music. Also, a system with a flat frequency response that can't handle dynamics will still sound awful.
Some people are more senstive to the various aspects of music playback than others. Call them "goldears" or whatever. Also, different people will value different aspects in the musical playback (due to their personal sensitivities and expectations, no doubt). As they say, "There no accounting for taste!" <g> So I don't believe there's a perfect system that would satisfy everyone. We just have to try things out, and decide for ourselves. Ranting back and forth to each other on this board may be entertaining, but beyond that it's pretty useless. -=> Mike Hanson <=- -- Mike Hanson _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
