"My ears were trained on my old JBL."
Recent comment from another post. Do we presently chase a sound baked in our brain from our initial experience with audio?

Most of us accept that audio memory is very short and pretty poor.
So where sounds are closely matched few people can reliably distinguish in AB tests even where A B and X are presented at very short intervals.  Some here try to perpetuate the myth that one can 'learn' how to listen.  This doesn't really work.

So unfortunately there is no way we can reliably remember sound quality from 40 years ago or whatever.
