Boa2,Not at all. I think we all have different points of reference, and mine applies to my ears only. Many people like Musical Fidelity gear, which is great. The more options, the better.
I am not challenging your opinions on MF gear, but I am wondering what gear you have in mind for hearing music, not hi-fi?
Some of the lines that I find to be more musical (some tube, some SS):
McIntosh, VAC, Audio Aero, Art Audio, Pass XA series, Conrad Johnson, George Wright, Audion, Blue Circle, Manley, Naim, Parasound, and others...
Again, just one person's opinion.
