Does hearing the best in high end audio make your opinions more valid?

Elizabeth even once one filters out some meaning the  meaning must still actually matter.  

@calvinj  I guess I could agree that exposure to a lot of things would be a positive however I  do not agree with the, a lot of expensive things, part.  I find that once you get beyond a certain price threshold going higher in price is not really related to sound quality.  

 And my reference to experience is more in the vein of experience with how to build these things and how they work.  In my area there are get-togethers and I almost always find that guys who build their own things ( or who know a lot about electronics) are not impressed with price tags and fancy cabling. 
 And I know right off the bat that many folks will think that it's not top-tier sound because it is not commercially available. Nothing could be further from the truth. I know a guy who was in the top tier of his field of  Radio telecommunications and he has built every part of his system except for the phono cartridge.  One of the best systems I have ever heard if not the best.   And he is just totally disgusted with the high-end in general.

 And with regards to Raidho leaving me cold, it doesn't mean that it sounded cold it means that it didn't grab me. It's been a while so I don't remember exactly but it just didn't move me and connect me to the performance.  As far as it not being set up right, that's a stretch to believe because it was a demo by one of the top dealers in the area. They chose every piece that went into it and I believe there were room treatments as well. So it's hard for me to believe that it wasn't set up right. And it sounded the same every time  I heard it which was probably about three or four.That's also where is subjective personal preference comes in. Some people prefer that thin analytical very detailed sound whereas to me it does not sound true to life.
 I would prefer more of a Tannoy Canterbury sound as it has more warmth and images better. I do believe Tannoy gets a little too warm sometimes but that's another story. Who is right?
