A bit hard, dry and bright sounding (traditionally).

Actually chaps I was feeling Germanic tends to refer to very matter of fact sounds, to which these are neither dry and bright or matter of fact, totally un-German like!

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Tony, please could you expand on "very matter of fact sounds"? Is that a negative or positive description?

My perception of very matter of fact sounds would be technically correct, does a lot of traits right, yet has very little ability to draw you into the musical involvement or long term listen-ability of your system
In the past many German speakers have been slight to quite bright, slightly forward, large sound stage, big bass (possibly over the top!), these are far more involving, flow a tune faithfully without artificial sweeteners (naim) and generally get out of the way of listening to music.

Thank you Tony, worryingly I think your descriptions pretty accurately fit my current situation.
