...what's your reaction if I should say, "There is no right and wrong when judging musical instruments"? To which I might add, "Every musician has a certain sonic signature they're looking for, a certain playability; is that so wrong?"
Mustn't we allow that a musical instrument, like an audio system, is a product of craftmanship? And that such craft practice will vary and individuate, and it's every man for himself in selecting his preferred instrument?
As I go around listening to some *very good* systems, I am always struck by how different they sound. Nor do I see any convergence -- they all have strengths and weaknesses, and respond to some sorts of music better than others. Is that so terrible?
More to the point of this thread, how has any of what we've learned from listening, direct us to a solution of "replicating the sound of that original event"? I suggest, no way.
