@twoleftears Agreed on the needing luck! : )
Your point on 'hyperbole' is well taken and applies. However, as @cleeds correctly points out, it's present on both sides... whether the descriptors are positive or in favor and / or those negative and against.
I have been guilty of this and I've been 'reining' it in, so to speak, as best as I can for myself. Disciplined control....
@slaw Of course. Each of us will describe the things we try in our own ways and to varying degrees (relative to others) and that's one of the reasons for this thread.
I'm proposing we work on defining the 'metrics' we tend to throw out there when we describe our system or other systems.
Perhaps something of this nature has been worked out and is available? If so, can a member in the know share the links, etc.
How we share what we experience is critical to our hobby. I'm asking for a methodology that can be (more) accurately understood and be (more) consistent across audiophiles.
