I think it comes down to overly bright speakers, probably the less expensive speakers, probably the ones you guys don’t use. I had some Energy Veritas that were horribly sibilant, same with a bunch of paradigms. Pair them with bright cables and harsh amps and as a novice you’d think “lots of detail” or “crispy” and then you find out what sibilance is…
I don't have sibilance problems, are my speakers dull?
Another poster asked for help dealing with sibilant performances.
It got me to thinking, the one thing I have not had a problem with in like forever is sibilance. Maybe this is because I don’t seek to make my system "revealing" which to me often just means bright.
I’m now kind of curious, exactly what kind of gear and recordings bring this problem out?
Best,
E
