Re: Who Says It's the Music and Not the Playback??

I don't quite know how to read your post, but if you are saying that fussing with the playback on your pc improved it to the point that your friend, who heard the "unrefined" version was now more impressed by the music (due to your fussing with the playback), then play him a piece of crappy music (an amateur drummer, something) that you have likewise refined and ask him to compare it to the 'unrefined' version of the (presumably) great music. If he is more impressed by the better recording of crap, then to me that points out a set of judgements that, while they may be typical of audiophiles, are out of kilter with what's "really" important--ie the music. However I am writing this Friday night after work and it's been a hard week, so if you mean the opposite of my interpretation, I agree with you 1000%.
