Clearly this difference in opinion demonstrates the unfortunate truth that these terms are meaningless because they convey no information. The opposite of too bright is too dull, damped, excessive treble or no liveliness. Dark has always meant something else to me its meaning is almost impossible to properly define its like trying to tell someone what an apple tastes like.
