We’ve been having some good constructive discussion on this topic over on this thread: ["Musical" vs. "Analytical/Sterile/Clinical" - Meaning of Terms?](https://forum.headphones.com/t/musical-vs-analytical-sterile-clinical-meaning-of-terms/4382/)

I suggest we keep it positive and talk there about “musicality” and keep this one focused on the product.
