I don't have sibilance problems, are my speakers dull?


Another poster asked for help dealing with sibilant performances.

It got me to thinking, the one thing I have not had a problem with in like forever is sibilance. Maybe this is because I don’t seek to make my system "revealing" which to me often just means bright.

I’m now kind of curious, exactly what kind of gear and recordings bring this problem out?

Best,

Sibilance to me is very different than the sound I've very rarely heard when DACs just don't seem to like a particular recording.  There was a song by Halie Loren (now I can't remember) which I owned and on one DAC it would consistently distort, more like paper being crumpled.  Switch DACs, problem went away.
