The "parameter" in the thread title refers to what counts for getting "special" sound, that delivers the "Aha!!" experience, over and over again. Otherwise, you're just listening to a hifi, and you're well aware of that fact, all the time.
To use a simple analogy, you have a punctured tyre. It may be a superb quality, high performance item, using the best quality rubber, and the finest design ideas have gone into it - but while it has a puncture it is useless as a means of having your vehicle do a decent job of going down the road. Doing everything to make the tyre better by cleaning it, applying paint to it, conditioning it in some way, is pointless unless you fix the puncture. That's what I mean by overall system integrity: fixing the punctures and air leaks, no matter how small - the result is, that the tyre always behaves itself and gives of what it is capable ... and most importantly, a cheap and nasty tyre with no punctures is good enough to get the job done, and stands head and shoulders over the airless "king" ...
