I know it is hard to describe, but brightness and transparency are two different things
Absolutely true!
Genuine transparency has nothing to do with the coloration of brightness.

@soix about 40 inches from the front wall and 9 feet between the speakers |
I also want to mention: My Macintosh system is capable of extracting very fine detail from a good recording. I found it out by borrowing a very expensive DCS Bartok DAC from my buddy. Of course, I have no money for that. But, I am looking for some DAC that can get close to the Bartok’ characteristic. |
Sounds like a great system, which is getting better. It would be helpful to see your system and venue. It is useful in assessing the impact of changes.
@auroravengeance offers a good caution that it can be easy to tip the balance to too analytical if not careful and lose the music (rhythm and pace). |
