For some, that may well be true. For others, it may be something else. There is one particular perfume that reminds me of my first girlfriend when I was a teen many years ago. That scent would probably do nothing for most of the population. It is certainly going to be the same with music. The audio clues that help you imagine "you are there" are not going to be the same precise ones that send me to nirvana.

Ideally the perfect audio system would do "everything" at the 100% level. But in that sense, not even the most expensive system comes anywhere close to that mark. I've often wished I could take one aspect of the sound of one particular speaker and merge it with another quality from a different speaker.

Of course, that is one factor in the dizzying number of equipment manufacturers on the market. You're being transported to the audio netherworld by one system and I could be standing next to you wondering what all the fuss is about since it is missing an audio clue that is more meaningful to me than you.
