Advances in technology != advance in sound
it could be but doesn't have to be
Are advances in technology making speakers better?
B&w every few years upgrades there speaker line and other manufacturers do this to. But because I have the earlier version does this mean it's inferior? Cable manufactures do the same thing.
How much more effort is required too perfect a speaker? my speaker is several years old and all the gear and the speaker are all broken in. And now I'm being told to upgrade.
I am so confused what should I do?

As said by most if you like it.. that’s the one. Just know there is better, but also a lot of mass market junk. There’s the silly tin can with 100 speakers or real Technology advancement like the aspen FR30 for example. What ever floats your boat is the way to go. And don’t forget Spectacular from the past it’s still D… good today. |
@roxy54...either way, it worked. ;) The baseline is still ones' perceptions about the devices being questioned having improved over time, and whether 'trickle down' works to 'lift all boats'...so to speak. There always seems to be 'exceptions to the rules' in pricing v. performance in what seems to be any given (examples stated...or not) in nearly anything proposed. Specs get poo-pooed, blind tests questioned as to veracity, 'new' gets greeted with huzzas or bronx cheers, 'old' is 'quaint' and needs new this, that, or dumpstered. One can toss the towel and just enjoy what you've got until you don't, and return to the upgrade treadmill at the price point you pick. Please carry on, though....tired of watching and trying to ignore the election returns. ;) |
