This is an "everything sounds the same as long as certain parameters are met" kind of forum. Although I do not subscribe to that view personally, I do post here and do respect that perspective.
I have only posted technical questions, etc. here, as this forum can be a valuable resource; however, as you have found, any mention of subjective experience ("musicality," how a piece of equipment "sounds," etc.) is usually met with immediate negativity against that point of view.
I PERSONALLY subscribe to the fact that human hearing is affected too much by how the brain processes sound (just as human sight is affected by how the brain processes visual input), so there is no way for anyone to state what another hears (or sees), just as no one can state for certainty what another person doesn't hear (or see).
