They can get some people closer to how they FEEL when they listen to music. That's where some tube amps excel. They are less about voices and instruments than about our feelings toward them, which they have a tendency, at least for some, to amplify, intensify. I think Audio Note systems do beauty as well as or better than most other systems. And beauty, as we know, is largely an emotional reaction to or projection onto something in the world that calls it up. I don't mean this to be profound, it just seems to be the case. Some of us just flat out love liquidity, harmonic richness, euphonious warmth -- more of it than real instruments and human voices are capable of producing on their own. If we have good taste, we don't want too much more, just enough to be soothing rather than arresting -- satisfying. I think, as I said above, that as we get older and/or hear lots of 'live' music, we lose some of the need for this, find it less satisfying, even a bit cloying. Bully for us. I ain't preaching here, just trying to describe and account for something that people bring to my house fairly often.
