Unfortunately sometimes the text medium of internet forums leaves much to be desired. My statement about pro-audio pertains more to the fact that the objectives in the world of pro-audio are very different from those of the consumer audio world. Recording studios are not living spaces and equipment that may work well in a recording studio may not work well in a typical consumer listening room. Basically while the opinions of audio engineers and musicians can be very insightful and valuable they are only opinions and should be understood as such. I don't discount their opinions and I try to weigh their relative worth with respect to my needs and goals when putting together a HOME audio system.
