what are the thoughts of stand alone super tweeter

Readers should do a search and read Audiofool's posting history for a clearer picture of what little he contributes.

If he doesn't sell it, it is worthless.

He is juvenile also.

Don b, there were two pairs of speakers at the RMAF with Murata supertweeters in them. One was the Reference 3A Grand Veena, which always are among the best sounding rooms. I forget the other speaker's manufacturer.

My Doctoral research area was the History of Science , I also have a Graduate degree in Theology from the University of Chicago. I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable about what constitutes an observation. Raw sense data is in no way an observation in a scientific sense. If you tell me that we have a product that 1. Plays no music and 2. Is inaudible and 3. In some inexplicable way makes the music better , I will say that you are in the realm of my other field, i.e., Religion, where belief in the power of unseen forces is prevalent. I am sure testimony such as yours would be admissible in witch trials but hardly in scientific enquiry. Your dismissal of Colloms would have been more convincing if you would have pointed out where he was wrong. You did bother to read the article didn't you?

My doctoral degree is in political science and one of my undergrad degrees was physics. I have taught research methods at the graduate and undergraduate levels for 42 years. One thing that science does not recognize is authorities and I suspect that Martin Collums would not expect to be declared one. Data is what speaks. Certainly, he is speaking of what he has heard and trying to make sense out of it. So am I.

I did point out where he was wrong. You seem entirely hidebound by you belief that all supertweeters are the same and that nothing matters beyond 16K Hz. I cannot imagine how you would ignore the possibility that you are wrong in your explanation as this is the very basis of science but I guess it fits with your theological studies.

Fundamentally, as this is a hobby and a matter of tastes, however, I rise to your being dismissive of what others hear. Frankly sir, I don't give a damn what you think.

is it worth my money... regards forevermusic414

Only you can decide. FWIW There is not much above 15Khz that most adults can hear. If you want to improve on a tweeter that rolls off at 12KHz then by all means go for it - however, for the money, I would think there is likely a better investment. Just two cents...

I also studied psychology, undergraduate major , Graduate work at Chicago and 2 years of Psychoanalytic training and I recognize certain symptoms in your responses which lead me to the conclusion that it is you who cannot brook disagreement with the conclusions you have already reached. When your pronouncements are questions you descend into name calling. If you do not care what I think why are you so upset about it? I will not enter such a contest as vituperation is not one of my skills. I will only point out that what you THINK you hear is not data and simply declaring something to be so is not making sense of it.
