The original comment wrt Strads was wrt bias something lost on you likely due to bias.Biases are not born all equals....They cannot be tested the same way to prove their illusory nature or not, like you pretend....Some are grounded in history and constituted not an illusion but contribute to create the experience itself....Proving them illusory erase the experience itself in his reality... It is throwing the baby with the waters bath... Something you do daily with your own "scientist" biases unbeknownst to you...
Your vast knowledge in audio, superior in most aspects to mine, is not the same as understanding and often not strictly equal to it , the 2 are ,each one a bias tough, not the same bias at all....Revise your study in acoustic...The grounding of neurophysiology of perception in the room chapters especially....

I propose to the jazz listener the more "jazzy" integral of Bach klavier with classical only means of playing tough by Zuzana Růžičková...
It will also be a test about timbre perception on your audio system...
If you dont like the sound, beware, it is not the files or the instrument but your system which is at fault...His sound is out of this world but unberable on bad audio system...
She plays with an astonishing clarity using register so various in colors that all other interpretations could appear boring soundwise.... Not musically, like for example the great Gustav Leohnardt....
Or one of the more astonishing piece of "classical " jazz: "Visions" by Walt Dickerson on vibraphone and Sun Ra on piano.... The decay clarity of the vibraphone will be a soundwise test on your system... The 2 players are geniuses here in their musical and soundwise means.... And telepathically related in a rare form of musical parapsychology experience which is well known by musicians ....
