Did you notice....

To my knowledge, the 'certain sound quality' of an original CD is red book conform. Red book covers 'everything' a human being can hear.

I notice that a well mastered/recorded CD sounds very, very good to my ears using my Myryad MXC 6000, analog into the Vincent SV500 amp.

So, from my side: Yes to the OP's question

I am 61 and my hearing is 'standard quality' for this age. Younger chaps might hear better.

@twoleftears thanks for your post. Perhaps, I don't understand your comment. Is there something 'wrong' as 'not correct' in his speech? Please elaborate, many thanks.

BDW, I do like Darko's comment about tolerance towards the end of this video. Especially when he compares the audiophile snobs vs the inverted snobs.
