Speaker design customer feedback
Hello, i'm Lawrence, and i'm looking for a source of unbiased, trustworthy information and, most importantly, opinions for my A level speaker design. Hence why i came to this audio forum, and i would like to ask for any personal opinions, and soon in the future, answers to a survey, all in order to really sharpen my design, and consequently, my final product.
So my question is, what are your biggest issues with speakers, and in what areas would you really want something to be changed?
Your answer doesn't have to technical, it can be do with portability, overall use, connectivity, or even simple aesthetics.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, just a small bit of knowledge is all i really need, anything worth sharing would really help.
Thanks,
Lawrence.

You might do better here. http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/loudspeakers/ The biggest problem is of course the exponential cost of superior loudspeakers. You can find a competent floorstander for $1000, a good one for $5000, and close to superlative for $10,000. Now if only those multiples were 1, 2, and 4. |
Man, the speaker market is so competitive with so many options out there from established manufacturers and direct sellers that I'll just wish you the best of luck in finding some point of differentiation. Kind of like introducing a new craft beer at this point. Is it too late to go back and just design and sell cables instead? To me this is more like the razor blade replacement cartridge of audio with relatively high profit margins and more ripe for disruption. Sorry I'm not much help here, but I'm rooting for ya! |
What I look for in a speaker: 1. Absolutely no distortion. Use the female voice as you standard. If you can reproduce the voice going from high to low note without the tizzy, staticy "shadow" distortion, you're on the right track. 2. What I call "eagerness". Sound that jumps out at you like your dog when you come home from work. A sense that the speaker WANTS to please you (related to high efficiency?). 3. Balanced sound. Highs not favored over lows, etc. 4. Smoothness. 5. Dynamics. Orchestra playing full tilt but that barely perceptible drum fill or chime can still be heard. That's a good start... |
