I've taken a similar approach to my photography. Granted, we've gone
entirely different directions, but I'm a hack at this, while you are
actually halfway decent. Yet, what you are doing is taking the Amish
approach to this. You don't miss what you never had.
I can be VERY pleased with my BOSE speakers and enjoy the sound from
them a lot. Until I listen to a set of really nice reference monitors.
I'm reminded of "Bench Bob" and his medium-format digital backs,
Leicas and his Canons. Looking through his on-line images, I could
figure out what camera was used for almost all of the images. Without
a comparative, the Canons produced excellent results. But when
compared to the Leica and MFDB images, they appeared off. No amount of
calibration would make them look like anything different. I think that
CH Ling would agree.
