RE: Not your decision: Art is whatever any artist says it is....

"Art is whatever any artist says it is...."

OK, so long as I don't have to pay taxes to support "artists" who piss on religious icons and call it art. Fortunately, this is not much of an issue where high end audio is concerned.

Those who produce recordings are concerned about accuracy. It is necessary for an excellent recording to sound excellent and a poor recording to sound poor. This is a more stringent criteria than "good sound". I think you will find that most good mastering studios take care that their systems are neutral, which includes flat amplitude frequency response and good transient response at the listening position. The room is the most critical element, more so than the speakers. In any system the room is an integral component of the system.
