In the end, the only speaker system anyone is qualified to judge is their own. Everywhere else, the best we can do is offer qualified opinion.
Fred, I agree 100% with you. I just find it interesting that since I have never heard, lets say, Stevie Nicks sing live, but when I put in her CD and listen through the M80's it sounds great, I mean really great. But if I were to compare her voice through the M80's vs any other speaker brand, I can only use my own judgment as to which speaker I prefer. It would be ignorant and arrogant for me to say that one speaker sounds more like Stevie than the other, because I don't have a true reference point. Let’s add to that that “audio memory” in humans isn’t very good, I would probably have to hear Stevie sing many times over and over again to make any claims on an audio systems performance.
Does this make sense?
