Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why?

I got sucked into the rabbit hole and read far too much of this topic. I am torn between rolling on the floor laughing at the gymnastics some will do to discredit others, and feeling I need a shower to wash off the filth for the same reason.  I do say @mastering92 , you have quite the sense of humor,

per mastering92: "A failed tech executive at Microsoft"

per bio: "During my time at Microsoft, as VP of Digital Media Division, I grew to manage a division of nearly 1000 engineers, testers, marketing and business development people." 

Hands up all the "failed" executives who have ever had a 1,000 people working under them. But that is getting away from audio. Before I respond, I can say that I personally, for professional reasons, find value in the work that ASR does. I can also say that there are many things about ASR, and more specifically the tone of the posters and the unearned for many of them, air of expertise they exude, that I do not like. I take what they do for what it is worth, predominantly competent measurements (at least for speakers, not all, but most). Attacking the equipment they use is not a great place to start if you want to win an argument. They are using the same, best in class, equipment that the better manufacturers would use.

I can't offer you a professional perspective on the impact of ASR on the high end consumer audio industry (though I will make some comments later), but I can make a comment on the impact of ASR on the professional market, and that is in general education. I am surprised by how many will make comments like "I read about that on ASR". For me, that makes my job easier. What about the consumer market. Well this topic is up to what, 10 pages, most of it an attempt to discredit a website that according to so many "does not matter"? How many more topics just like this would I find here, or posts sprinkled around many topics?  That is a lot of head space for something that does not matter.

@kota1, we are in agreement about Amir's room. What a disaster. My ears are ringing just looking at it. I do respect those speakers though. There are some that ascribe to a view that we can adapt our hearing to complex rooms. Probably that is true, but also probably true only to a degree. I think that is an old view that is being rewritten as more become aware of what good room acoustics can do.

On another topic, after reading this thread, and a comment you made I think I can clarify what Amir was saying about your ARC room correction measurements. I don't know why he didn't just say it instead of being confrontational. In your Arc posts, you show the Red measurement curve, the Black target curve, and the Green corrected curve. I think the point Amir was making without saying it, was that the Green corrected curve is a predicted corrected curve. It is not a measured curve post correction. Arc shows you a prediction of what the curve may look like after correction. I think he was implying you thought that was the actual curve post correction, not a predicted curve post correction.

You can have the best test equipment in the world, but if you don't use it properly you won't get an accurate measurement, like measuring a large dipole panel speaker at the wrong distance.

@thespeakerdude 

@amir_asr lost the measurement throwdown and I am now known in this thread as "king of all measurements".

If you want the crown you must throw down and POST what you got 🙄

@kota1 you must have very long arms. I don't think you will be taking the crown away from Amir any time soon. Big fish, very small pond. No need for the crown for me, I have my own Klippel to play with any time I want. Technically not my own, but close enough.

My post had nothing to do with that though. I was simply pointing out that the green curve is a predicted corrected curve, not the actual measured corrected curve. I am sure as the "king of all measurements" you knew that though.
