I know this is belabouring a point, but it is still ignored, and needs to be reinforced:
Accuracy in music reproduction has to be seen relative to the sound of real instruments.
This is eloquently put by andy evans in a recent thread in SET Asylum:
""The timbre and tone of live instruments is pretty easy to assess and compare against the reproduction."
This is exactly how I feel - I'm a professional musician and the sound of acoustic instruments is permanently imprinted in my brain. I keep going on about timbre and tone mostly talking to the void, but it's nice to come across a kindred spirit.
"The one that let's an instrument sound the most like you would hear live is the one that is more accurate to a human. It usually isnt' the one that measures better."
Amen. Exactly. Humans and music lovers do the actual listening, not robots."
Think about it,
