“ I honestly have no idea what “accuracy of the music” means.
That’s one of the differences between you and Bernie.”
what? That he is fluent in gobbledygook and I am not? I guess it’s a job skill for folks working in the audio industry
Mastering legend Bernie Grundman explains why the measurement crowd has it all wrong!
There's a great new interview with Bernie Grundman about the AJA UHQR where he relates that a component that a measures perfectly, but uses a lot of electronics in the signal path to get that result, sounds inferior to electronics that don't even measure flat, but have less in the pathway.

I recently read one of these "reviews'' where they admit they mostly don't even listen, but just rely on measurements. It was one of the most amateur reviews I had ever read, and now the we have one of the top trusted golden ears (one who actually creates the content) state that measurements don't indicate what something is going to sound like.
I'll take Bernie's perspective over an idiot with an analyzer touting cheap gear that measures well, just to make people feel superior about their (sometimes) midfi gear.
