Why are there so many wooden box speakers out there?
I understand that wood is cheap and a box is easier to make than a sphere but when the speaker companies charge tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars for their speakers, shouldnt consumers expect more than just a typical box? Are consumers being duped?
Back in the 70’s a speaker engineer found that a sphere was best for a speaker. A square box was the worst and a rectangular box was marginally better.
The speaker engineers have surely known about this research so why has it been ignored?
Cabasse is the only company doing spheres. Should wooden boxes be made illegal
How can it be a troll question if Cabasse does it? Should cabasse be illegal? is that what you are implying? At least state some valid arguments for why you disagree rather than just calling people a troll. I'm guessing your speakers are wooden boxes then? |
But what does that show? That audiophiles dont care about sound but care more about how a speaker looks?
If I was in charge of the speaker industry half of the speakers we see wouldnt be allowed due to inadequate sound quality. |
Can you please point us to this research?
I would think that a square box is closer to sphere than a rectangular box is?? Is having all the internal reflections arriving back at the same time a good thing? Or would an amoeba shaped be better than a sphere to spread the reflected sound out temporally?
