The conclusion I've reached about speakers


After years of listening to box speakers the conclusion I have come to is that:

All speakers sound the same

A big speaker does more bass and goes lower. A bookshelf gives no bass and cant go as loud. 

Any other differences are either imaginary or DELIBERATELY contrived to make them sound better to the unsuspecting buyer.

The ONLY other differences aside from sound quality are the price and appearance. Prices can vary substantially and so can the way a speaker looks.

In other words, everything we thought about speakers is all wrong.

"Studio monitors are designed to sound bad. They are a tool used for analysis. Hifi speakers need to sound good. They are for enjoyment. Directivity is a matter of preference. There is no correct choice, theres only PREFERENCE."
Kenjits post from today in another thread. So if accurate sounds bad and speakers need to be "massaged" to sound good your whole argument is ignorant. No correct choice its only PREFERENCE!! That's the opposite of the argument you have been trying to give forever. Thick headed di#####t.
