Is it okay to talk around your speakers?

6550c,

Attach a volt meter to the speaker terminals and gently push the woofer cone in and out and see if you register any current. Or, place another speaker a few feet from the speaker with the volt meter attached and play a recording of conversation or crowd noise, at normal levels, and see if you register a current.

I don't care what my speakers think about me. They're not being paid to think. If they don't do their job, they'll be fired. End of story.

I have been a member of Agon since 2003, reading the forums daily and I have yet to see a post so idiotic...

We talk allot about tweaking gear to sound better like spending mega bucks on power cables (which may be the same thing with another name on it) lets spend more on a cable than the actual amp! And things like Beaks? What the heck is a beak? If that's not the craziest thing yet! If it really works, then why doesn't the manufacture add this?

We don't talk much about protecting and preventing damage to our equipment or even things that may cause minor sound degradation overtime. Maybe because prevention doesn't involve selling a voodoo logic product. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and I guess there are allot of dealers that can't really bring in the good products aymore, so now they just focus on selling the cure.

I've seen plenty, although I'd personally call it nonsense.
And I suspect 6550 is just trying to stir the pot and get us to think a little.
