High Fidelity Sound Speaker

ozzy62

I just finally watched one of these videos. Words fail me.

How about kludgey and dangerous for starters?

so far not even 1 Audiogon member has contronted my Q here and even dared mount a  argument as to why xover /low sens speakers define fidelity??

If xover style speakers are so full of glorious fidelity,, why so many manufacturers, Zu, Tekton leading the newest flavors of the year.

Vandersteens, Thiels, hanging on  for deal life,, Wilson's just keeps getting bigger and better, prices are ratcheting up and up and $$$$$$$$$$$,  affordable only for Dubai Oil Sheiks.

. You guys pool together and come up with even 1 lame reason xover/low sens are superior to a  good FR sysytem, or  even my Dual FR system

well Im waiting.

Just 1 theory asto why xovers are superior.

Good luck, ya gonn a need it. 

For every 1 idea that you imagine might give the edge to xovers/low sens speaker over FR, I"ll give you  TWO reasons why xoverlowsens are flawed.

Let this final battle begin. 

Put up YOUR very best designs, Wilson,s Sonus Faber, Rockport, Dali,,, did I leave any  of the big guns out??

This MF Guy is only here to argue.

His entire thread is combative as are all of them.

Crossovers are not superior they are an intrinsic problem in which success is measured by the least damage done. High sensitivity is also, when are other aspects are equal, superior. Issue at hand is what sacrifices must be made to  achieve results.

Problem with FR is that they are never full range and they misbehave at frequency extremes. If you cant hear this then you are the one with the problem as the design is intrinsically flawed in this regard. Running a midrange or midbass driver full range also limits output. Add to this the problems with dynamic drivers and you get a better more objective view of the issues involved.

Sorry but your attempts to "dumb down" these complex issues just dont hold water. Too many experienced members on this forum to buy into your gross oversimplifications and inane generalizations. If there was one ideal speaker this would be the speaker all of us would own.

No more Friskies for you!
