“Faithful to the recording”


I despise when reviewers use those words in describing a piece of equipment unless they were, quite literally, at the recording.  Once those words are used, I pretty much stop reading since IMO the reviewer is full of BS.

Your thoughts?

And what key word(s) or phrases cause you to stop reading?

I dislike any terms which seem to be pointed at making the writer sound intelligent when a simpler and more traditional well established word works. This includes

tight bass and many other flowery terms used in descriptions of audio sound I reject tight bass because I am a drummer and have heard a real bass guitar and it is NOT tight
