From a reviewer's perspective, hi-fi components can be a tad opaque, metaphorically, if not literally. It can be hard to tell where they come from, or what they're intended to achieve that is not already available, perhaps from a multiplicity of sources. Or it may be that the products are so literal in the way they 'interpret' music, that it is hard to tell where the notes stop and their musical meaning begins.
