the paradox of accurate speakers

Just because it is considered Accurate does not mean it is absolute, like in art there can be 2 seperate "Accurate" renditions of any given item but there can still be and are subtle and profound differences.
You can apply this to so many things like every instrument, take 2 Piano's that are both tuned.....they will sound Accurate but different.

And yet, scales can be accurate or not, meters can be, gas gages, weather forcasts, so many things...so why not speakers?

So what is the logic here: if accurate speakers differ to any extent in their presentation it means that there are no accurate speakers so that we may as well have boxes that put out whatever any given person likes?

Try replacing the word 'accurate' with the word 'congruent'. . . and you will quickly realize that two speakers, both congruent with reality, need not sound at all the same.

Accuracy in speakers is not an absolute that a speaker is either accurate or not, it is a spectrum with less accurate warm and mushy on one end and less accurate hard and grainy on the other. The middle part of the spectrum is nominal accurate, but speakers in this portion of the spectrum can lean a little bit one way or the other.

Actually, the picture would probably look more like a circle with a smaller circle in the center representing accurate speakers. Speakers can probably digress from accuracy in an infinite number of directions.
