While I may not have the "exact" system a source was recorded on, I do have a recording studio with very high end monitors that are very accurate.

But that kind of listening is very different than listening for pleasure.

The first is "work" related. Listening to exact/flat/accurate playback on near fields/mid fields sometimes reveals more ugliness than beauty (the "truth") and is way different than just listening for fun.

The second is for pleasurable "audiophile" listening. Where euphonic (but neutral and accurate) listening is desired.

When I write my review of the M22's, I plan on discussing the differences between "professional" and "audiophile" speakers.

Because they are apples and oranges.
