RE: Searching for truth?

Luckily, it doesn't work that way. I use the approach of rick_m's and have found it extremely productive, has worked very well indeed for nigh on 30 years now - and there is always an end to the list of audible defects that matter; and that list may be quite short in fact.

What happens when you get far enough is that illusion of the musical event that's been captured finally overrides the audible limitations of the playback equipment; and the ambience, the acoustic of the recording masks the listening room sound behaviour - this is the 'magical' sound that some people chase, like myself - you get fully immersive, convincing sound; in another room - the LIAR test - and also directly in front of the speakers, it still works ...
