Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused


17 of 23 speakers in my studio and home theater systems are internally powered. My studio system is all Genelec and sounds very accurate. I know the best new concert and studio speakers are internally powered there are great technical reasons to design a speaker and an amp synergistically, this concept is much more important to sound quality than the vibration systems we often buy. How can an audiophile justify a vibration system of any sort with this in mind.

Heads up (on powered speakers): there is currently a Black Friday sale on Sonos speakers at 20% off. Example: Sonos Arc sound bar is now $719

@steakster ​​​​@jerryg123 Good spot! In only four posts, this must be a record spotting Cin Dyment entering Audiogon yet another time. However the list is missing a few most recent names. Here is the full list:

@jerryg123 : Yeah I am right. I have dealt with the human equivalent of malware here for more than 15 usernames of his over almost three years. I know the dude very well. His evil character and deep hatred and ridicule for the hobby is unmistakable 

@steakster : it’s definitely him. Cin Dyment. He is trying to sound different, and nice, but he can’t. Venom prevails with him. Sooner or later it will be pretty clear and obvious. It’s just a matter of time. Watch the space 

He is likely creating a brand new username right now only to post my real name and threaten me with all kind of things. Sad creature. Here is the full list of his usernames:

@ricevs : if arguing with the speaker dude seems like deja vu, you are not dreaming. He has been here before multiple times, banned all times. Here is a full list of his previous (all banned) usernames:

Forgive me, for I have no input. I’ve just been following along :-)

That’s OK. Could be much worse . There is a speaker dude on this very thread pretending to be a speaker manufacturer who does not even own any speakers. The only “speaker system “ he has is in his 1998 Corolla 😉🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@kota1 :

unless you publish your creds

There is no such thing. He is NOT a speaker designer. He is Cin Dyment. Famous in all audio forums. A sick dude with nothing to do, and a Google Machine. That’s all. If you did not get the memo, he had been here at least 19 times before with various usernames. All banned. Here is the list:

@mijostyn , you have two people @donavabdear and me, who work professionally in the field, both apparently with physics backgrounds. As well I (and apparently @donavabdear) have worked with other physicists, acoustic experts (often physicists) and engineers who also have significant expertise.

😂😂😂. Cin Dyment: that’s very funny. Last time you were a Craigslist scavenger. Before that a battery businessman. Before that an acoustician.

In reality, you are just a sad dude with a Google Machine.

You are a very sick dude. Mentally sick. And a very bad dude. The worst I have ever encountered. And you know it
