Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused

@thespeakerdude , it is sad to see someone who professes to be a professional be so poorly educated as to not understand basic acoustics. Do yourself a favor and go back to school. 

@mijostyn , do you really want to go there? This thread is about powered speakers, if you want to focus your post on a members system, fine. To drag this thread into a battle of "I am smarter than you" is boring. Or, why not start a thread on basic acoustics? The TACT you use is not exactly the latest technology you know? BTW, have you ever looked up the word TACT? I don't see any in your last post. FWIW I think this is a good video on acoustics:

@mijostyn , the bottle neck in your system is two fold. The TACT is like from the prior century and why not take advantage of Moores Law? (Look it up). The other problem is your subs are too big for your system, they bounce around (unacceptable) and can integrate better with your speakers. This is a good resource:

@mijostyn , you have two people @donavabdear and me, who work professionally in the field, both apparently with physics backgrounds. As well I (and apparently @donavabdear) have worked with other physicists, acoustic experts (often physicists) and engineers who also have significant expertise. I provided you with some links that explain, at as basic a level as I could, that what you think is happening and what is happening, are not the same. You can do with that as you wish. You can try to increase your knowledge, or not. Your choice. People often minimize the complexity of things they do not understand. I am sure you experience that in your own career.
