Shadorne - Not everyone likes clarity/transparency and resolution (I do). Reading user reviews of my Benchmark DAC1 I found opinion that it is too resolving/analytical making possible to hear each instrument instead of preferred "sound blob" that people got used to.
The Sound or Music
I listen to all genres of music but really enjoy it with good sound. I know of people who just love one particular type of music but don't care at all about audio. My late relative just loved classical music and had hundreds of good records but his system was like bad transistor radio. He had means but was not interested in better system at all. Music, for him was 99.9% and sound 0.1% of the pleasure. He was most likely missing half of instruments of orchestral music, he listened to - either by limited frequency response or very poor resolution. He was a music lover. Am I a music lover or just only an audio freak?
