Do your speakers have enough "freshness"


I have come to realise recently that one of the ingredients I wanted from speakers is a "fresh" sound, but was unable to articulate that. This is not a term I have used in the past but I am realising that for me it is so vital in creating an emotional response to music. How do you describe what "freshness" is? The best I can do is it is a kind of an open, clear, extended, and lively quality that occupies the mid range through the upper frequencies. I think now that I am more aware of how important this attribute is for me, it is very apparently missing in many speakers. As I have moved up in all equipment, but especially speakers, there has usually been an improvement in freshness, amongst other things. How does sit with you?

Agree with many of the descriptions of 'freshness' put forward above. I think it is a term that can encapsulate a few of the more typical audio terms in one word. It is obviously not my term but when I heard it, it worked for me.
Tomcy6, thanks for posting that link again. Communication is so much better when the words have the same meaning for all parties concerned.
Hi

I think you are starting to hear perhaps that "vail" characteristic...it might be your hearing degradation? Maybe not.

You are chasing that elusive dragon of sound...I think you are just bored...whenever I get restless I go in the storage room and change it up..this usually works..lol
Cheers..
Happy Holidays
