The LRS+ sounds incredible in my small room. The best sounding speaker I have put in this small room. It could be that measuring a speaker like the LRS+ is not as standard fare as cone based speakers.
Did Amir Change Your Mind About Anything?
It’s easy to make snide remarks like “yes- I do the opposite of what he says.” And in some respects I agree, but if you do that, this is just going to be taken down. So I’m asking a serious question. Has ASR actually changed your opinion on anything? For me, I would say 2 things. I am a conservatory-trained musician and I do trust my ears. But ASR has reminded me to double check my opinions on a piece of gear to make sure I’m not imagining improvements. Not to get into double blind testing, but just to keep in mind that the brain can be fooled and make doubly sure that I’m hearing what I think I’m hearing. The second is power conditioning. I went from an expensive box back to my wiremold and I really don’t think I can hear a difference. I think that now that I understand the engineering behind AC use in an audio component, I am not convinced that power conditioning affects the component output. I think.
So please resist the urge to pile on. I think this could be a worthwhile discussion if that’s possible anymore. I hope it is.

Amir caters to certain audience. Those who like someone else to do the thinking for them. They love to hear that his reference professional grade $99 Chinese DAC measures better than a $5500 DAC as voltage coming out of his $99 preamp outputs. Listening test are almost never mentioned. These people go on about their day feeling great that some sucker spent $5500 on a DAC when they bought a better performing product and saved $5400 in the process. |
