I agree absolutely with the above. The thing is, I'm struggling to understand the poll, or the meaning of the results. As an example, I have a Pure DAB (digital) radio in my bathroom. I like the sound of this little thing very much, it is kind of sirupy warm, and it does not have a lot of treble at all. It's not remotely hifi, but I would have to say it is far more 'forgiving' than my old Expert amp or the Pro, or indeed my previous rig. Would I want to sit and listen to it for a couple of hours, a favourite album or a few interesting tracks? No I wouldn't! It is incredibly forgiving though.
Or to put this another way, surely bright/harsh recordings should sound bright and harsh?
