My 2 cents worth (or whatever currency works for you... ;-)
I find the difference between good records and bad recordings more obvious and a bit startling with the new Pro than I did with the older Expert. That's not to say that the Pro is more or less forgiving. Just that I so much more enjoy good recordings with my 220 Pro. And when I listen to an older, poorer-quality recording, I find myself less likely to sit through it all.
So perhaps the correct description is that I'm less forgiving of a poorer-quality recording via the Pro.
But I absolutely love the sound qualilty of my Pro and would not want to go back.
