Yes. It's an amazing realization, really. And the more I think about it and listen to it the more I realize it's true, and that it's an important truth for us audiophiles. For example: it's amazing at how bad stuff sounds at shows. Everybody blames the rooms, but maybe it's because everyoone is playing their gear too loud in a subconscious effort to force impressions. In the end, you walk away thinking the gear sounds bad.
