RE: conflict between accuracy and impressive

Most of the Sheffields are very good. The one I refer to was the last classical piece recorded by them.
As for speakers, they are the bane of my life. So many errors and such little attempt to correct them. One noted speaker designers who makes a line of time and phase aligned models once exclaimed to me that if perfect frequency response and phase alignment and time alignment were the goal of every designer, there ought to be a convergence of sound at a certain price point.
It doesn't happen even at a $100K. It simply means most designers are like chefs: they willingly alter the sound to please a specific market. They are NOT after true neutrality.
