People perceive things differently and have preferences when it comes to sound. That’s why there is no perfect speaker (or other piece of equipment). I was reading some of the studies published on sound on the AES website and it was interesting what people perceived and preferred. There was not 100% agreement on any one thing. It brings me back to people trusting their ears. Watching videos and reading comments it appears some people want validation about what they’re hearing and others want to convince others that what they believe is gospel and heaven help the person that disagrees. We don’t all have to agree. If you believe something sounds better because you tried this or switched to that, then it does. Let’s all enjoy our music and our musical journey. That’s what this hobby is all about to me.
Send in the Clowns
I have just watched a review of a monoblock on another site. I will not mention the site nor the monoblock brand name. What I found funny was that the reviewer did not listen to the amplifier at all. All he did as measure it and say this is fantastic.His ears did not come into it at all. What a clown.
