What if accuracy is boring?

Posted by 13th Duke of Wymbourne on November 26, 2024 at 14:07:54:
I don't know that is true but if an amplifier that is proven to add the least to the signal is not as entertaining as one that is proven to add more what is the reason? Could the latter pass some un-measurable quintessence that the former can't or do the added imperfections enhance the sonics?
Of course, what is preferable is the right choice though, I think, for some/many, they expect their preference/choice to also be superior in some objective sense too. So if it turns out that accuracy is boring don't tell anyone.
