The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound


I have changed my mind about this over the years. The absolute sound (closest to real live music) just can't be accomplished even though I have heard some spectacular systems that get close on some music. So years ago I changed my system to give me the sound I wanted. I'm much happier now and all my music collection can be enjoyed for what it is: Recorded music.

It’s idiocy is literally grade school level.

Speaking idiocy for others....Will you admit your complete erroneous understanding of the concept of "bias" important concept for the understanding the scientific interpretation range of the blind test method itself ?
I posted your own definition and the standard one contradicting it and confirming my own use of the word bias...

You are mute?






He does not know what a "bias" is.... Like demonstrated by his own posts and the standard definition... He use the result of blind test for his agenda, out of their scientific range, for his own goal which is ridiculize audiophiles group....





I just read his post about "imaging" and he reduced it to electronic design and digital processing, they are the fields he knows about, and some true facts indeed about speakers location, BUT ignoring the MAIN acoustical law for room "imaging" : the law of the first wavefront, which is the main factor in the recreation of " depth imaging" in a room which is, first and last, a phenomena coupling acoustic physics with the neurophysiology of perception...Not a phenomena explained first by the coupling of source and speakers or headphones...The law of the first wave front is a law in the acoustical neurophysiology...

Even if your source is perfect with all the recorded perfect "cues" you will not gain a great imaging in a bad room.... Any educated audiophile know that...

I prove it to myself by creating a device, a "mechanical equalizer" after Helmholtz, that plays with the different timing tresholds in a room for the perception of the first wave front, from late and early reflections and their timing and the creation of the "image"...

I am tired to argue with him because he is unable to undertand his own errors....Myself ignorant about all this i proved i could learn creating my own mechanical equalizer...

I already proved that he dont understand acoustical timbre phenomenon either for the same reason, ignorance of acoustical phenomena and their reduction to digital engineering only the field he know well...

I will go out on my room now...

Show me evidence of a blind test ... That is all you have to do. Don’t make false claims. Show the tests and results ...
We’ve been through this before. No one here owes you evidence of anything, ever. This is a hobbyist’s group, not a scientific forum. It’s well within forum rules for users here to report their listening experiences. You seem to struggle accepting that.

Of course, you are free to submit the results of any tests that you like.
