Is it possible to have an accurate speaker


That is warm sounding? It seems that If a speaker were warm it would be colored and not accurate. Any thoughts?

No - it is not possible to have a 100%$ accurate speaker - nor is it desirable.

For example it is well known that the most accurate speaker alignment called transient perfect sounds too thin and that a slightly less accurate alignment sounds more real.

Remember the purpose of reproduction is to evoke the feeling this is real so you can suspend what is obvious - namely this is a Hi Fi system and not live. That requires tricking the brain and quite likely slight deviations from strict accuracy will help that.
