I agree. Objective evaluation of equipment does require a systematic approach. However it should be possible to keep the methodology and language used to describe these phenomena relatively simple.
If we are to encourage others to share our interest and passion for music and reproduced sound it needs to be described in a more accessible way. This does not necessarily mean 'dumbing down' the subject.
It seems to me that some of the evaluation methods described on this site are unnecessarily convoluted, almost in a (vain) attempt to justify some of the more extreme equipment choices that various users have made.

However proud anyone is of their precious playback system, however correct they say it is; it still isn't going to sound as lifelike as my local choir, symphony orchestra or the little girl next door having her piano lesson. I don't feel the need to eulogise these sounds. They just 'are'. You, doubtless, are familiar with your own equivalents.

Having an elaborate, carefully evolved method for evaluating equipment doesn't, in my view, give anyone the right to make broad, sweeping criticisms of particular manufacturer's tastes, products or the customers that choose to use their products. Well, maybe it does, but those opinions will have no more validity than any others (except perhaps within the narrow context of the particular criteria used.)

Also, somewhere in the thread above, it was suggested that the experience of 'more serious playback' was linked directly to 'more serious music' suggesting that the experience of realness increased with complexity. I don't share this view. Yes, more serious music may engage your senses more but I don't believe the sound itself becomes more real. Similarly, smoking pot when listening to music can also make the experience more intense, but not more real.

Again I get the impression that attempting to link 'serious music' as a pre-requisite to 'serious playback' is over intellectualising matters. It almost suggests that someone who listens only to solo singers or simple music gets less 'realness' from the experience. The equipment, of course, doesn't know what kind of noise it is being asked to reproduce.
