My "perception of accuracy" is based upon both reason and emotional response. First (and perhaps foremost), my perception is based upon that which sounds most like music to my ears.
Following quickly on the heel steps of a purely emotional response comes reason. If reviewers who are also recording engineers (John Atkinson or John Marks, for example) say that certain speakers transmit sounds that closely resemble those heard on the recording dates they are familiar with, I would give their opinions serious consideration - even if my ears are telling me I should do otherwise.
A combination of trust and mistrust (toward myself and others) provides a system of checks and balances, so to speak. The "truth", for me, lies somewhere in between my subjective perceptions and literal reality. What I think to be true is not absolutely true.
