What does he mean by this... re: RF-7's

I'm trying to help out someone in another forum:

I'm still dumbfounded by his remark about the RF-7's:

>RF-7's lack some midrange realism to me. I do like there dynamics alot.

I always thought that midrange realism was directly related to the source material. Use the wrong microphone and NOTHING will sound realistic, regardless of amp and speaker combo.

Even in an A/B compare, if one set of speakers has 'midrange realism' and the other doesn't, which is the correct representation of the recording? If the recording was biased against realism (and I know this before the a/b compare) then that would mean the speaker that showed 'realism' was tweaking/coloring the sound, correct?

I know that listening to speakers is subjective, and not everyone will hear the same thing from them, i'm just opening the theory box to get some logical answers/discussion on this.

When you have Forte II's that make crap recordings sound like crap and great recordings sound great you tend to get crazy with the ?'s 9.gif
