RE: Until everyone agrees on what an objective value is

>Say it is lovely, warm, smooth..use any purely subjective term you choose that implies no more than that you like the sound, and I'll just congratulate you on enjoying the music<

I'm with you. Unfortunately, when those comments are used, the replies are usually of the "You simply love the sound of distortion and prefer colored, inaccurate components" or something to that effect. Then the responses are "I prefer the lifelike sound of real instruments in real space rather then incomplete measurements"... and the arguments that have been going on for decades continue. :)

Sordidman and Tony seem to think that accuracy and transparency are moving targets. Perhaps that's the essence of the schism between so-called subjectivists and objectivists.

Nice thread!
