I think you missed the point of my post.  The point is that our ears
work the same.  Our eyes, except for when we are color blind or have
some other gross disturbances, work the same way.

What varies, my friend, is our expectations and our likes and dislikes.
You might like it because it APPEALS to you.  To you, to your
sensibilities, to your subjective tastes.  Some people like vanilla ice
cream and some people like chocolate ice cream.

As for your second point, I use it as an example above.  Someone who is
a fan or rap or other such music might well EQ their system so that the
bass is exagerrated.  They will like that.  It will NOT be an accurate
representation of the recording, that's for sure, but it might fit the
person's aesthetic sensibilities.   (By the way, you do realize that a
15db increase is enormous, right?  Overwhelming.  Moreover, doing that
on the low is is a great way to destroy your speakers, and is certainly
positive to produce distortion.  But that's another conversation.)
