Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused
17 of 23 speakers in my studio and home theater systems are internally powered. My studio system is all Genelec and sounds very accurate. I know the best new concert and studio speakers are internally powered there are great technical reasons to design a speaker and an amp synergistically, this concept is much more important to sound quality than the vibration systems we often buy. How can an audiophile justify a vibration system of any sort with this in mind.

Still waiting on your amazing wisdom about bass @kota1. |
@kota1 ya I don't think bass makes midrange sound better because it is part of a harmonic foundation, of course I'm not talking about music I'm talking about comfort in listening to your entire sound system. I understand how fundamentals, harmonics 5ths, 3rds and the rest of musical chords work. I not exactly sure but it seems like this ideas isn't true because in ambiences in nature or used behind a movie scene the low end sets the tone for content feelings high end sets the tone for bad feelings to be overly simplistic . Actually sound in movies is a lot like music ambiences random sounds can be signals to make you comfortable, or discontent, it's not about harmony in chords it's more about the lack of assaulting mid and high frequencies and the addition of warm low end when you are supposed to feel a certain way. As far as why the bass makes such a difference in midrange in music I do think harmonics help but remember there are always harmonics and good sub energy is not about the fact that there is low end present but the way the low end acts in the presentation of the music, in other words bad sub sounds don't help even though the harmonics are still there. |
