A controversial takes on low cost speakers with a lesson...


A controversial takes on 5 speakers comparison with an acoustic lesson few will catch:

It is evident that this man in this video is not a mature audiophile but an ordinary beginner not a "troll" as you seem to be with few others here derailling the thread with no positive comment...

I did not used this video to troll myself as you insinuated qualifying the video of "dumb video" then attributing this quality by extension to me the OP  when i  used it to speak about acoustics importance and meanings....

I will takes back the apology i gave you few days ago thinking that you were a good faith person...

The underlined part of your post reveal how hypocrital you are and conscious about the way to push the right button to derail my thread with some others which with you banded  with...

I gave you no respect for that and for your past trolling against me either...

 

 

when I said "Pure trolling" it was referencing the dumb video not the post. But I doubt it will help. 

Now i go back to serious matter with a question  :

If the timing and directionality of reflections are critical, if early lateral reflections boost ASW, while late lateral and rear reflections boost LEV, then no matter which is the price or the design of your speakers, there are acoustical parameters that makes us able to transform completely our reviewing impressions about any speakers, then what matter the most acoustics parameters controls or a slight speakers design upgrade or price upgrade ?

Knowing how to pose the question is already the answer...

This simple discovery by the youtuber of my first video, who seems to be less dumb and of better good faith than some troll post in my thread, was the matter of my thread...

 

It is evident that each one of us, as the person in my first video, one day each one of us  as beginner we discovered that speakers locations and the space we are with transform or had an impact on our evaluation of speakers workings ...

Are we dumb because we are able to speak about it and are we troll because we post about this ?

 

 This is why i used this video...

 

 

 

I did not say you were trolling. That's what I clarified exactly. If you still twist my words, that's not my problem. I never in this thread said or implied that you were trolling. 

I watched this video. All 19 minutes. 19  minutes I will never get back. I can tell you 10 + 1 reasons why it's dumb. My, my, praising Andrew Robinson. He is shallow and wrong in so many ways. (I am ignorant about 99.99% of all things and anything I would say about it would be dumb. The things is, I know it and I wouldn't make a video about things I know very little about for 1 million subscribers.)

Here is what I did just now. I watched 5 random minutes of it again. It is so dumb, I cannot even begin. But get this: I am saying this on this forum. Sure, the guy makes good points - for beginners. But the way he makes it is just dumb. Is it subjective (what is dumb)? Absolutely. It is just painful for me to watch. I am by no means an audiophile expert and that makes it even more obvious. 

Now the elephant in the room is your personal insults. Totally unnecessary. I don't know why you have the need to attack people who have a different opinion than you do. I didn't form an opinion about you but about the link you posted. 

Do I care about your personal attacks? No. I am just tired of them. It makes people avoid your posts. 

 Why the frequency responses of a speakers design is not enough to know the speakers potential peak performance ?
 
Because of the room frequency response in which it will be working...
 
 
But why the room frequency response is not enough to reach  the optimal sound quality  experience ?
 
 
Because there is psycho-acoustics parameters...
 
Because stereo listening is completely unnatural  for our hearing sense...We must use this unnatural situation for the best...
 
 
 Then What ?
 
 Then you can tune mechanically  your room in relation to your own hearing perception...
 
 I did it mechanically using Helmholtz resonators tunable and specifically located grid of resonators...I tuned them on a long period  in a self correcting way i had 100....
 
Doing so i used in a mechanical way  the psycho-acoustics principle related to the way each of our ears perceived each speakers timing and location ...
 
I learn acoustics doing it but it is not esthetical nor practical especially in a living room if you have no time ( i was retired)....
 
 
 Then the only optimal way is after buying speakers, after doing the minimal acoustics treatment and control you can read Dr. Choueiri articles and methods using psycho-acoustics in a non mechanical way but with specific filters to optimize your speakers/room for your specific hearing...
 
 
There is no other way i know of....
