Peterayer,
You make some very good points. Atmasphere may reject the term "voicing" but clearly the desired outcome(sound quality) is subjective and in the end is determined by listening.I find it difficult to except one can absolutely 'know' the sound of any product based exclusively on it`s specifications and not hearing the part/component in question.Engineering ability and competence obviously is important but there is certainly an art component at work as well to complete the final picture.Otherwise we all could simply rely on specs as Audiozen does and be confident of the sound quality.Atmasphere you must 'listen' to your components to verify your expectations ? and if you do listen then there is`nt 'complete' reliance on engineering theory and specifications.
Regards,
