Does Every Track Sound Great on Your System?

How do you know if it is the recording or your system?

By way of example with a focus on bass, for some songs I like the amount of bass, then another song I feel like it needs more bass to hit harder, and then another song I feel like there is too much bass and it is boomy. Does that ever happen to you? I feel like I am getting the treble sorted out, but going back and forth on the bass.

Can anyone listen to the first 20 second of the song Temptation by Diana Krall from the Girl In The Other Room album and let me know if there is a bass component that is a bit much? The vocals sound good so no issue there.

Thanks.

I have almost everything Diana Krall has put out and I know that song very well.  The bass is not boomy, so there’s something else going on.  What speakers do you have? Are they front or back ported? What’s your room size? How far apart are your speakers? How far from the front wall are your speakers? How far from the side walls are the speakers?  How far is your listening position from the speakers?
