Is "detailed" audiophile code for too much treble?

I equate detail to clarity and separation. Brightness to an aspect of the tonal character. 

Perhaps this may help?

Detail:  The subtlest, most delicate parts of the original sound, which are usually the first things lost by imperfect components. See "low-level detail." Compare "haze," "smearing," "veiling."

“Detailed” is what you hear in a live acoustic performance sitting six to ten feet away from the performer(s).

”Muffed,” or “smeared” is what you hear when you go into the venue’s bathroom.

Nothing to do with “bright” or “treble.”

@noromance, well said. You can tell the difference in minutes.

Good analogy Audphile1! You just described the difference of most Samsung TV’ s( over saturated colors) vs the better Sony & LG’s. They have a blacker background & more realistic colors which can be very similar to a really good, natural sounding sound system vs a lesser one. This is often but not necessarily associated with cost either. I think we’ve all heard nice sounding, pretty high resolving systems for very reasonable $ but If you want a system to sound good & fill a big room w/ a big sound stage, deep tight bass & play loudly & dynamically, that costs a lot more. .
