no point arguing... if you are new, refer to the glossaries i mentioned in an earlier post to understand these and other terms often used
folks who are here to debate ad nauseum are just wasting time... these terms are well known and understood among people who have been been in this pursuit, are commonly used to convey the sound of systems or components
about a month ago i had a good friend in my driving cohort who is fairly new to high end hifi... i had him over and demonstrated to him the sonic differences between analog and digital, the differences between a tubed dac vs a solid state one, a solid state vs a tube amp ... these words were immediately understood by him as we listened and discussed the music that was playing, swapping back and forth
Audiophiles have been using these terms with these meanings for decades FWIW.
