Open baffle speakers

It seems that @bache has a habit of starting controversial threads about OB speakers. Not a good look for a manufacturer who builds a competitive design.

Why do I get the feeling that the OP doesn't really want to learn anything, and only wants to argue, or try to prove he's the smartest guy in the room?

"If you dont believe in acoustic silence and only trust what you are hearing , stop reading my post and keep enjoy in bass performance open baffle design . "

Well, of course I only trust what I am hearing. What else would I trust? Some link you posted that I'm not going to read? I'm not even sure what that means. 

So.....you asked a question on why OB speaker designs became popular.

You received well over a dozen replies from real-world listeners, people with real-world experience.

And you want to argue (in broken English, mind you...) that they don't sound good? That they're bass-shy? Why don't you try a pair for yourself and then get back to us.

Thanks, and have a great day.

OK , trust you what you hearing , ,Sorry and happy listening OB speakers. But more listener prefer traditional loudspeaker design ,  

Coke vs. Pepsi.  There is no right or wrong.  Neither type of speaker is unquestionably technically superior.  In my limited experience with a small number or audio enthusiasts, a majority moved to open baffle from box speakers.  All described a more musical presentation closer to live.  All described an evolution away from brand name hype, reviews always positive, focus on specs, and a maturing of  their tastes.  All wished they had discovered open baffle sooner.  I know other enthusiasts that love box speakers.  Listen to what you like.

The OPs "But more listener prefer traditional loudspeaker design" attempt to claim being right and have the last word is meaningless. 

I have both and enjoy both. That is what makes this hobby fun. Hearing what different speakers bring to the table.
