"Measuring a speaker to determine how good it sounds is like measuring the light spectrum coming off a rembrandt to see how good it looks."

Bad analogy.

To the original point, the English language is pretty poorly equipped to describe sonic phenomena, so it borrows terms. Hence "bright", "dark", "muddy", "soundstage", etc.
