wht is the difference between good and bad sound ?


is it all subjective ? is sound quality dependent upon the ear of the beholder, or are there standards for judgment ?

in essence, if one does not like the sound is it bad sound, and cobnversely, if one likes the sound then it is good sound ?

does this also apply to components as well, i.e., if one does not like the contribution a component makes to the sound of a stereo system then that component is a bad component ?

It's like asking what is the difference between good and bad food. I have no idea what "you" like to eat, but whatever it is I am sure you truly enjoy it.

I would have to agree with Mrtennis' point about experience. If we didn't have opinions based on experience all we would be left with is just sound.

Opinions derived from observation, experience and communication is what makes the world (and Audiogon) go round.

Anyway, bla bla bla, this is a bad thread...... or is it?
