Aria owners? Mike Elliot's new company

Yes, accuracy is a relative term. Nothing is really accurate. My presumption is that if a piece of gear reveals more of what is going on in the music, it is more accurate. However, the piece may be more accurate in some ways, but less accurate in other ways. For example, a really great transistor amp can reveal more detail and dig further into the mix, but it may also be more harmonically threadbare at the same time. It's a hard hobby -- I continue to be amazed at the discoveries I make while comparing equipment, but in the end, it shows me how inaccurate the art of stereo reproduction really is.

B&W's don't kill the music. Their accuracy and transparency is obviously something you don't like. In my experience, B&W's act as a window for the sound of your components.
