Speaker Pricing and Reviews

Hi Everyone,

I just posted two entries to my blog that I think you'll find interesting and hopefully informative. I've been doing a lot of analysis and trying to compare my personal hearing experiences with reviews, especially at Stereophile which has caused me to post a couple of pieces online.  Please let me know what you think. One of the common replies is that there is more than frequency response to speakers, which is true, but then why do so many of the over-hyped speakers Stereophile reviews share a common frequency  response (FR) curve?

The more I go back in time looking at Stereophile FR charts, the more apparent the Stereophile curve becomes.

Please let me know what you think.

Best,


Erik

On one hand,can you blame a speaker mfg.for making something that will sound good to the end user?? 
On the other hand,should they charge $100k for those speakers??
  It appears that some speaker mfg's have hired audiologists instead of engineers.
