I don't know, I just don't find it as good as composers like Mitsuda and Uematsu (I felt like Uematsu kind of dulled after FFVI, which I feel is his best work). Also, I think Chrono Cross is Mitsuda's best work, surpassing Trigger as one of my favorites.
There are plenty of composers out there that have definitely stepped it up as far as quality goes. One that hasn't been mentioned yet is Michiko Naruke, which is the main composer for the Wild Arms series. Well, she did the first three games, but fell ill during the fourth game, so she only did some of the tracks for that one and I don't think she really did much for the fifth.
