Exactly! I have no musical ability, but have a very good sounding system. My musician son knows nothing about hifi and listens to my system only rarely (he lives in another city). When he does listen, he gets a big smile very quickly...and five minutes later he opines on things/issues in a song that I had no idea existed.
