Surprising his “ID” was not as developed as one might of expected, whereas the “Ken” was quite pronounced.
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

But you’ve been warned. By all means tread carefully! Hey, I found the fabled KSS speaker system! All the best, |
@Dill I remember your speakers Dill. They were small boxes mounted on a pair of stands in what looked like a fairly small room. This is not what you call a high end speaker system. If you want perfect sound you must have 20hz to 20khz reproduction. Yours will only go down to about 100hz and even then its already rolling off. The wood used in those boxes would be better off in the fireplace than for trying to get high end sound out of it. Speakers are not instruments Dill. The boxes are supposed to be silent. You only want the drivers to move. You have a lot to learn. Dont you think its time to improve your speakers? |
"They were small boxes mounted on a pair of stands in what looked like a fairly small room." - I do not have stand mounted speakers. "If you want perfect sound you must have 20hz to 20khz reproduction." - There is no such thing as "perfect sound", it is subjective. "You have a lot to learn." - no doubt, however it won’t be from you, I listen to the ones that know what they are talking about.
