I think my "ear-brain-feel" has developed and changed relative dramatic the past months. My focus has changed in a way that puts the experiences from the ordinary man/woman in review/experiences here (and other forums etc), as an entry when seeking knowledge.
Second, I may – or may not – read reviews from “Experts”, just to see if they are aligned to majority of common people’s experience. If there are major differences, ill seek info regarding that.
When on my ears, I will totally l (as much without any extern bias at all) left the rest over to the "ear-brain-feel" department. After some time there, I will usually know what I am dealing with.
I have never had a notion of any not-organic timbre? What do you mean by organic? The accuracy of the “real” sound of example a drum-set, there you can almost hear what kind of skin he’s using on the drums, by organic do you mean all the “flaws/faults/subtle distinctness-etc” of an instrument? Not as in dynamic, where you can enjoy the ride of substance in the dynamic carousel, but more the “signature” of the individual instrument, “as it really is”? I am not sure what you mean?
I did a super quick listening-comparing now, just to see if I had missed something, but in my ears, I really thinks the timbre is superb, also in demanding sound-stages! If I really try to be critical, I can maybe say that the “joy-dynamic” (which by the way is no distort as in EQ-ed coloration, just fantastic dynamic) overrules the organic timbre? But I am not agreed with myself there, soooo, really, I do not know.
