Agreed with Ricardo. Trebly stuff stands out when there's a crowd. If you're in the room by yourself, maybe it doesn't matter so much, but it's necessary when you're in a group. I have been playing in a duo the last month, and my friend plays real close to the bridge and with a naily sound. It really helps him cut through the strumming. My tone is naturally rounder and more classical, which is fine when playing Recuerdos but not so good when I'm trying to play melodies and scalar passages over an aggressive rumba strum. It's why sopranos carry the melody, or why flutes dominate almost any group--except when there's a piccolo!
