On a tour of the US a few years ago performing Mozart on original basset horns we had a strange criticism one evening. The persons opininon was that we sounded too good to be autentic. He was obviously very much against the use of autentic instruments in performance and was disapointed that it actually sounded better than he had expected.
I didn't quite know how to deal with this and felt both flattered and insulted at the same time. I think the person was only there to give criticism in one way or the other anyway and I just told him that I was sure that the people back then sounded even better at least stylistically since they were children of their time and we are just their humble echo. He was still not convinced.
