There was a study in the late 2000s that suggested kids (later end of the millennials or younger) tended to prefer the sound of music encrusted with MP3 artifacts over a straight digital reproduction, which suggested that what you grew up with is what you like to hear and the criteria for a "good sound" are slipperily subjective. Try running that by a Gen-X music enthusiast, though, and watch them make a Wojak face and cry "NOOOOOO! Digital can't possibly capture the warm guitars and fat synths of my analog-mastered vinyl Zeppelin album! It HAS to be 100% analog from the studio to my earholes!"
