Why wont speaker companies publish their measurements?


It's not ok to assess the quality of a speaker just by listening to it. Most listeners are not trained. They dont have the skills or knowledge of an expert like me to know what the hell they are listening for. There are too many other variables that affect the sound quality such as room acoustics, source material, amp quality, hearing loss, preference etc. For all these reasons, we MUST rely on speaker measurements ALONE when deciding how good a speaker is. 

The problem is however that the wretched speaker companies WONT DO IT! They just will not publish their measurements. 

Are they embarrassed? Are they hiding it? Do they even have the measurements? Worried they wont match if somebody else does the measurements?

Speaker companies cannot claim that their speaker is superior to a competitors speaker since neither of them will publish their measurements. As a result the claims are uncorroborated HOGWASH. Despite this, there is intense competition among the speaker companies. There is a WAR going on out there and its a war that cannot be won!

The only way to separate the wheat from the chaff is to examine the measurements. Until that happens nobody has the right to claim that one speaker is better than another. Nobody knows which speakers are better than others. Until the day comes when they will publish the data, its all just hearsay and opinions.

If you want to be a first rate audiophile, do not settle for anything less than the TRUTH. We deserve it.

Many companies do publish useful measurements to help people choose. Stick with those if desired.
Go to Magicos website and show me where the measurements are.

Also Stereophile and other orgs actually measure gear they review including speakers.....also useful.
So that absolves the speaker companies of responsibility does it now?  No it does not.

Most people could care less about specs and measurements.
Thats because most people are not TRUE audiophiles. Being a true audiophile requires the pursuit of PERFECTION, not simply what you think sounds best to your ears. I am now revoking your title of Audiophile. You are hereby demoted to AMATEUR HOBBYIST with immediate effect.

All the best,

Wrong, it is just your opinion, that really carries very little weight. A legend nersissist in your own mind and the power to influence no man.

They are there, Mr. know it all for all their speakers. Do the research yourself. Don't waste other people's time!
KEnjit I hate to break the news to you but trolling audiophiles is no great accomplishment. Anyone with enough time to waste who actually cares can do it.

When you start you own speaker company I will look for the specs and measurements so you can show everyone how to do it right.

Cheers!
I can find every measurement I wanted for my speakers on the manufacturer website.
