Good read: why comparing specifications is pointless


 

“ … Bitrates, sampling rates, bit sizes, wattages, amplifier classes…. as an audio enthusiast, there are countless specifications to compare. But it is – virtually – all meaningless. Why? Because the specifications that matter are not reported ánd because every manufacturer measures differently. let’s explain that...”

You are the one that decided to brand your website as "science". You admittedly are neither a scientist nor have a "lab"/studio/listening room that follows well established specs (see Toole, Kota1, Abbey Road, Sony, and Dolby Institute in the above posts).

At this point you have two choices. Align yourself with the "science"/specs like the Toole, the Kota, et al. or make a very simple change to your brand acronym.

Currently you are branded ASR

Just change the first letter (A) to the very next letter in the alphabet and I think you’ll nail it.

Good luck with your website and I am taking the good counsel of my fellow members, no more feeding your trolls, bye!

The website is not called "science."  It is Audio Science Review.  Audio Science and engineering is our guiding light, not what random poster says on a website.  We review and digest audio science and use it to our advantage to build superbly sounding systems without wasting on nonsense that does nothing for the performance of your system.

We can see the sharp difference in the way you blindly ran an automated EQ system that butchered the bass response in room.  Every frequent reader of ASR forum would have been able to school you on proper target to say nothing of the formal study by Dr. Toole. These are mistakes that readers of ASR either don't make or are given immediate help to fix. 

Good luck with your website and I am taking the good counsel of my fellow members, no more feeding your trolls, bye!

I didn't think that would ever happen!  Thank you for finally letting go of my pant legs.  😀 As for luck, thankfully we don't need at ASR as there is strong appeal to both audiophiles and members of the industry to read and view objective and science based information about audio. We have more reach than this site and stereophile combined.  You should wonder what the rest of the world knows that you don't.....

 

 

 

“The hope of film buffs and makers alike is an experience that fully transports the audience into the world of the characters,” said Auro Technologies CEO Wilfried Van Baelen. “Having major releases from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment incorporating Auro-3D helps provide this immersive experience, with sound design unlike anything audiences have heard before, to ensure they are able to enjoy films how the creator intended—with full impact.”:

Auro-3D filed for bankruptcy back in June of this year.

 

Amir_asr, thank you for posting on this forum. I've never posted before. However, I think raising the profile of reproducible quantitative measurements in the audiophile world is worth supporting. I love the audiophile world because of it's confluence of science, art and what it means to perceive as a human.
