Yes you are right - human voice is coming first for tuning system.
Sound quality of Newer versus Older speakers
From a sound quality perspective, is there anything that newer speakers are doing better than older speakers. For reference, I have a pair of Monitor Audio Silver 300s which are amazing me with their ability to balance detail retrieval with an ability to avoid harshness (with the right ancillaries). My subjective perception is that this type of balance between resolution and refinement was more difficult to find in speakers from 20-30 years ago.

@alexberger and @roxy54 -- "So when I go to friends or audio show I always hear compression from most of low sensitive speakers. Even big speakers like Wilson Audio. I feel it like a heavy, strained sound reproduction, unnatural, tiresome. Sound presses and it cause me a discomfort." I’d agree with this as well, although some of the "molasses"-like imprinting described, from my experience, is also a by-product of passive cross-overs, like a slight softening of the sound - a bit more smeared and less transparent, even. Most high efficiency speakers are passively configured also, but here the effect appears less pronounced. |
Another thing to add to my post Covid list. |
