RE: You're on to something...

"Descriptions of subjective experiences are always selective and that involves subjectivity."

When referring to "live references" we are usually referring to the sound of live accoustical instruments and not an experience. I submit that the importance of trained listeners is that they will all tend to hear the same things, ie. the sound of the instruments, independent of the experience of listening to the sounds.

"Few people have actually compared their systems to live music in real time. Even so, such comparisons are not directly relevant to how a system will perform at home, which is likely acoustically much different from the original recording or recording venue."

When it comes to proponents of the live reference it is exactly that truth which they attempt to minimize. It goes far beyond simply being a trained listener.
