ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS

I care about measurements only to the extent it helps with matching components. As someone mentioned the ohm rating on a speaker matched to the power/current of an amp or the phono cartridge to phono amp, etc. As far as other kinds of measurements … not at all interested. I listen to the sound and music, not measurements.

Well said.

I really appreciate the hard work that Alpha Audio has been doing. They are conducting the actual research that Amir at ASR only pretends to do. He is certainly not doing science, I am not sure he even knows what a scientist does.

Agreed. If Amir was in fact a real engineer he sure doesn’t demonstrate any of his scientific education. At this point he has built such a large institution if he was even shown real facts disproving his hypotheses, or rather "beliefs", he would surely deny them to keep his bubble intact.

Sad all his followers cannot get past his useless measurements and false statistics.

@joshua43214 you make a lot of great points.  Also sometimes it’s how the equipment, power cables, interconnects and speaker cables interact with each other. It’s all so an issue with personal preferences. If the cables enhance your listening experience then you like them. There was a guy that was a nasa engineer that made great cables. His cables had a great soundstage but extended the treble and had a bump in the the lower midrange and in some systems it was great. In other systems not so much. But to each his own 

@kennyc love your spending above measurements analogy
