I totally agree.

It's the height of arrogance and incredibly ignorant to assume that you
*know* that another person's perception of a subjective issue is wrong.

However, in the real physical world, things are simpler.

No one can claim to speak for an experience which they have not lived. You
are not me, therefore you cannot with any respectability, tell me that my
choice of hifi, cable, source - anything that I have chosen as preferable -
is wrong.

We could however point to glaring problems with its fidelity to the
source material! :-)

In matters of taste, no one can arbitrate what is right or wrong without
exposing themselves to charges of "pompous, arrogant ****" - hence my hifi
is better than yours P

I don''t recall any such argument being proposed, in matters of taste.
Of course, there's nothing quite so pompous and arrogant as assuming
that one person has 'better' taste than another - Chavs excepted! :-)
