For what it's worth Bud hated anything that wasn't classical music, barely recognizing it as worthwhile. I knew him well and I loved Folk music and would take it with me when visiting him. Fortunately we were friends so he tolerated it but I still recall him calling it tinkle music.
But to call what he played non dynamic is totally incorrect. The most dynamic music, meaning contrast and sudden changes in level, occur in classical music, not in any other format. Popular music is loud; it's not dynamic. And Bud was totally aware of that which was why he got into transmission line speakers after a love affair with the original Quad electrostatic.
