... You take yourself wayyyyyyyyyyy too seriously.
Speaking only for myself, I couldn't care less if I have your respect or otherwise.
I listen to music how I want to and it is totally irrelevant to me if you like it or agree or whatever.
I have had bands and musos play live in my home and on my property. Gosh!
When I buy albums I certainly don't owe the musicians or the music any respect whatsoever, I own them nothing.
If you feel the need to delude yourself you owe music and musicians your respect that is your burden to fantasize about. I think your comments are absurd.
If a person wants to listen to music with bass which is not supposedly realistic then that is their prerogative. I have more respect for folks who listen to music how they want it to sound than people who get cowered into listening to music how some internet bozo says they should listen.
I play guitar, piano/keyboard, flute, clarinet, accordion, harmonica, euphonium/fresh horn and drums (usually not at the same time) I think my family are very harsh critics, they prefer to listen recorded music in the very same room I play music live. Ungrateful so & so's they are.
Life's good, enjoy it. Especially enjoy listening to music however you wish and be gracious enough to allow others to do the same without ridicule.
Cheers.

"We like to believe that what we are all striving for is a system that will reproduce exactly what is on the recording, be that good, bad or so-so. Such a perfect component should perform its desired function—transduction, amplification or what have you—and nothing more. It should neither subtract from nor add to the input signal. It should, in other words, be the equivalent of a straight wire with gain, and when inserted into the signal path, it should produce exactly the same sound as when it is bypassed. Nothing could be more self-evident."

... What is the purpose of replying with a quote? How about addressing my comments instead of replying with a quote from another person. Try thinking for yourself instead of doing a copy and paste.I don't know who the "we" or the "all" in the quote are but Holt or you don't speak for me, never have and never will.
EDIT; Syntax.
