IMO, the introduction of Dolby in professional recording and later in consumer versions was the beginning of the end for good sound. Things went further downhill with early digital, especially RBCD.

Once artificial artifacts were added to the music, it was only matter of time before these got twisted into a necessary part of consumer expectations. The sheep buy what they are sold, and the result was history. Technology has corrupted the process of producing music, not just reproducing music.
