@georgehifi Loudspeaker efficiency 101: Less efficient loudspeakers tend to have more voice coil heating and so are more compressed than loudspeakers of higher efficiency: http://www.aes.org/e-lib/browse.cfm?elib=5251 https://www.stereophile.com/reference/1106hot/index.html https://www.researchgate.net/publication/323935533_Voice_coil_temperature_in_loudspeaker_performance... https://www.tonmeister.ca/wordpress/2014/01/16/bo-tech-thermal-compression-compensation/ http://www.cieri.net/Documenti/JBL/Documenti%20tecnici/JBL%20-%20Dynamic%20Linearity%20and%20Power%2... https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/power-compression-vs-thermal-distortion-loudspeaker-alexander-wilson -and on and on. This is simply not a matter of debate. As you can see from these and similar related documents, all loudspeakers have voice coil heating as their actual efficiency is rather low. You get less voice coil heating if the driver is more efficient. This results in less compression. Now you might think that you can just throw more power at a lower efficiency speaker to deal with this, but this results in more heating- exacerbating the compression effect. |
The only thing you two are succeeding in doing, is keeping this post recent until someone adds something useful.Totally agree. This is simply not a matter of debate.Keep believing this in the "wrong context you are saying it in" and your cred will suffer for hiend audio, just like your statement. atmasphere Our OTLs do a nice job on the Alexia |
