What does "voiced" mean to you?

Often times on these threads, reference is made to a product being "voiced", I'm curious what exactly that might mean to Audigoners.

All audio gear has colourations - each designer chooses his/her set.

When a designer stays true to how he voices his speakers you get what they call that 'house sound'. All the best, Nonoise
