ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS


Is it just me or am I the only one that has had it with overly pushy audiophiles that push measurements as the end all be all. I’m not talking about healthy discussions on measurements but obnoxious ones that talk down to you because of the measurements of your system or equipment is not perfect for them? All cables and cords are snake oil to them if it doesn’t register on their meters? Am I the only that feels this way?

@tomic601 the use of an SPL meter to level match is not the proper way. Matching voltage is.

@invalid sure…try that w speakers…. and a good dmm is more rare here than an SPL meter….

@acman3 I meant identify her by the numbers alone - being interested in that way didn’t come into it. 

@mclinnguy 🤣

To my embarrassment, my wife has never been shy about sharing that statistic.

Sadly, it’s breast cancer she has in common with ONJ not her name. I’m John from Newton.

 

Sometimes I like to sit in my comfy listening chair and enjoy some measurements...there's no sound of course, but knowing those measurements are there just makes me want to jump up and dance my ass off.
