Did Amir Change Your Mind About Anything?

Blind test are useful for short term memory verification of subtle audio cues...

You dont  pick gear choice by blind tests and measures numbers only...

Trained ears in acoustic or musicians dont use blind test because they work with long term acquired acoustic cues perception habit...

Amir negate this and claim it  to be ONLY  delusion because he think his measuring tools are adequate to replace the ears natural long experience and in some case trained in acoustic and music ...

but   the way psycho-acoustic reveal how the ears/brain work in non symmetrical time domain and with non linear hearing strctures and methods contradict his llinear  analysis time symmetrically dependant tools ... A pair of ears is no electrical tools...Fourier methods are no more enough to understand human hearing, then it is preposterous to reduce human hearing to gear measuring tools... Only ignorant people can believe that...

Not one of the 4 physicist articles i proposed contradict my stance, it is the opposite and Amir was unable and unwilling to go on that road... His goal then appear to be a circle around him not truth...

@soundfield ​​@amir_asr Make love and get it over with already. I could cut the sexual tension with a knife! You two are so excited for the other.

@somethingsomethingaudio

I have a rare L-C-R set of ATC SCM100ASL active mid-field studio monitors as my fronts, made originally for Abbey Road. Three subs, two in stereo supporting the L&R with one 16" sub dedicated to LFE for DSD and Video content. Rears are Harbeth 40.2’s and 6 overhead ceiling mounted Definitive Audio 3-way monitors for height/Atmos. I have dedicated 2-channel path that bypasses the AVR I use for video.

Do you undertand what is the time domain ?

Do you understand that hearing is related to the long history of decoding natural sounds meanings then hearing works in a non symmetrical time dimension and non linearly at all ?

Amir never answered about that and about the 4 physicist i summoned all saying the same things..

Then i am here to discuss...Why did you claim i am not for discussion ?

who else here proposed 4 articles for the discussion ?

Where are Amir psycho-acoustic science backing his claim about hearing experience not so valuable as gear measuring tools ?

You are so naive to believe posting a tool analysis of an amplifier is a proof in psycho-acoustic and an answer to my 4 articles ?

Answering my point in psycho-acoustic by proposing chart analysis of amplifiers or cables is NOT AN ANSWER...

Before judging my posts have you read the 4 articles?

What means for you the fact that human hearing beat the fourier uncertainty? say to me what this means please ?

i wait...

 

By the way you said i lack comprehension about Amir...

Sorry but i thank him about the measures information about the gear...

I cannot accept his stance about hearing experience to be replaced by the listenings methods he proposed based on his gear measuring methods and then the bashing of any OTHER hearing experience...

Perhaps you did not understand the points discussed in these articles? the human hearing limits are not those Amir claim they are...

What did they said these articles ? Try yourself to understand BEFORE JUDGING ME ...

You are patently not. I’ve followed your discussion with Amir. And while you make some interesting points, your rush to express your opinion betrays your interest in trying to comprehend what Amir is saying. So, instead you badger him for answers to questions he has adequately answered more than once.

Are you able to read this : ( why amir did not answered about this article physicist ?

I discuss here, not him ,because he refused to answer about fact... The ears dont work as his measuring gear tools... And nobody can predict how an amplifier will sound only with measures of some specs...

This physicist is Dr. Hans R.E. van Maanen, His hobbies are listening to music (mostly classical), developing high-end audio systems

«Although the Fourier theory has been well established since the second half of the 19th century,it is surprising that so little attention is given nowadays to the conditions, required to apply the linear theory. It has been applied unreluctantly to electronics and human hearing, even though neither fulfill either of these requirements. Therefore, it should not come as a surprise that the results are inconsistent with listening experiences. »

«The effects in time domain of non-linear behaviour in combination with memory effects could explain why e.g. amplifiers with similar properties regarding frequency response and distortion
levels, sound different. It is to be expected that ten (10) different designs will produce ten different responses to music signals and thus receive a different perceptual qualification.»

that so many on here are so hostile to measurements is very strange to me, but I understand that sometimes defending our own perceptions is more important especially if we have big $$ invested... and I also am well aware that one can argue that our perceptions ARE our own personal reality, so...

it is also very strange that people complain about hostility on Amir’s site and yet are so hostile on THIS site.

sigh.
