The coloration of the recordings will be there no matter what speaker is used, there's no way around that. If a certain speaker sounds better with most music overall to a particular person, it shouldn’t matter to that person if that speaker is considered to be the most accurate speaker in the world or not measuring-wise.
If we take the thread starter
@MattHooper as an example who likes something about his speakers that makes everything sound more
accurate and real to him. We don't know if the aspect he favors with his speakers is a coloration, or if it’s a certain aspect of the reproduction that is truly a more accurate representation of the incoming signal.
Do you think he should go for something else just because it may be a coloration that makes him like his speakers more than the other speakers he has heard?
