Watermelon test for audiophiles!


Hey,

In this hot and perfect watermelon season (where lots of them are really tasty and sweet), I was wondering if audiophiles can actually pick up a PERFECT watermelon just by tapping it and listening to the tap.  If one can hear differences between different cables, it's a lot easier task to listen to watermelon tap. Or on the other hand, if you can't tell which watermelon is perfect by tapping, how come you can hear differences in wires or cables?

Tap test is flawed.

As indicated by the diagram, I go weight(density)

and the "field spot" No field spot suggests picked too early.

Even then, mother nature still makes a dud now and then.

Eat better tasting watermelon, and you can hear the SQ difference between your system turned on and off. 

Breathtaking!

 

To pick a ripe melon thump it with a finger. A hollow sound will indicate a ripe melon, a solid sound indicates not ready. The thump test however, is not an accurate test for good cables. 

The only thing this “test” shows is that you like watermelons and you eat a lot of them. Nothing about audio. First thing first, first step, you need to own an audio system. 

It's not at all about the tap. It's about the yellow spot. The bigger it is means it riped naturally on the ground longer while still attached by the stem. Those are the sweetest watermelons. That info is gold and I can't believe I just gave it away.
