Neutral electronics are a farce...

Have words lost their meaning? Words and terms like smooth, refined, detailed, wide soundstage, organized soundstage, bass shy, microdynamics, de-interleaved, irritating, tortuous, threadbare, innocuous, harsh, whimpy, congealed, boomy, honky, musical, open, metallic, electronic, wet, liquid, anemic, bland and so forth attempt to describe the sound. But the usual audiophile words have become meaningless or trite. Maybe we need a new lexicon.

Maybe we need a new lexicon.

How about real or not real?
Believable or not believable?

To which Roger responded,

"How about real or not real?
Believable or not believable?"

Not bad, but I prefer Hyper Real, Surreal and More Real than Real.  Oh, and Unbelievable! or perhaps Un-freaking-believable!
