Anyone reading this post thread should probably visit the Ken Fritz virtual system. I spent some time reading through the comments mostly to read what he said.

 

His comments were very generous and detailed and took great interest communicating all he did. He liked to share what he was doing clearly. Reading these comments leaves me with a very positive feeling about this guy. He had a company he worked very very hard and was doing something he really really enjoyed. We should all be so lucky and talented to do what he did .

He spent a lot of time on limiting devices to protect speakers during home theatre operation which is a new thing I've never heard of. And clearly he was very obsessed with creating speakers and purchasing a lot of drivers to do just that. I still find it hard to believe his speakers could not realize more when they were sold.

At least he immortalized his work in a documentary. I'm sure just about everybody on this forum would have loved to spend time with this man. And this is where I fault the article.  clearly the Washington Post was neglectful by sensationalizing some negative aspects a family relationships, and distorting this man's Legacy.

The entire youtube video is Ken talking about him and his system. Numerous times during the video you hear grandfather clock chimes going off. And so the audiophile in me went into critical listening mode wondering if I could hear all four of them separately or whether or not he had them sequenced. Honestly, I think I may have heard quadrophonic chiming - for the first time! - and it was quite alarming, but I think you are right and it was just sensationalizing by WaPo and his divorce and estranged son sad story prose was sensationlized and did not happen and perhaps maybe produced by the underground pizza human snatchers. 

I answer when someone attack me...😊

He answered to my critic of his way to apply his "psychiatric" science on a dead person by saying a falsehood and calling me "antivaxx"... Stupid people had no argument save falsehood...

I apologize to the OP and to all for being out of the thread matter...But i dont like when people condemn someone they dont even know because of an article and judge one the top scientist in the world, the first microbiologist in fact, as a fraud because they read it in a newspaper...

I can erase my post ... I will do it right now...

Done....😁

It wouldn't surprise me if the chimes were working on only one of the clocks and the other three were silenced, probably because there is never perfect synchrony.  Most modern chime clocks have this feature (and a feature to selectively silence the chimes at night). Mantel clocks have this and I suspect many long case clocks have the same.  The question is why have a chiming clock at all in a personal concert hall, what Ken effectively built. It seems like a needless distraction and intrusive to the function of a listening space. All I can guess is that Ken liked them and didn't care about their noise.
