@mahgister: Well, assuming that the sound perception is personal and subjective:
What would be the point of discussing sound systems and good sound in general if everyone has different opinion and sound preference. And how do we explain the fact that most of us agreed when it comes to good recordings, good music venues around the world, good symphony or musical performances in general, good hi-fi shows or bad ones? Obviously, we hear and perceive sound in a similar and uniformed way. On the other hand, I agree that we have different preference in music genres and that might well influence the overall expectation of one"s sound system performance. However, that should not be a major factor when it comes to a good objective sound perception of music.
