When a budget speaker is preferred to a high end one...


How many have experienced a situation when a more budget oriented speaker has a more preferred overall sound over a higher end speaker, something at 3 or more times the price?  What are your thoughts, experiences and how can you explain this?

When is a car with square wheels preferable to a car with round ones? - on a square road))

@theaudioamp why do you need it? - Are you a manufacturer ? ... don't reinvent the wheel! .. here, as in any production process - the better the components, the intellectual capabilities of engineers - the higher the result (this is the general temperature in the hospital - with the exception of frankly illiterate products) ... A small manufacturer is not able to compete with a major professional ... only if he is more professional and his goods are "handmade" (but then the price will be higher than mass production) .

@theaudioamp in the entire history of audio, no one spent more money on research than Matsushitsu (they maintained 3 institutes and hundreds of engineers, conductors, masters) ...
100K? - this is baby talk ... for example, the austic camera of the VEF factory (Latvia) cost around $ 10 million ...
or this Dynaudio

this market is monstrously overheated - my advice to you is to quit it))) It is unlikely that you will be able to create a Stradivari violin for the price of a sandwich ... there are a lot of people who want it (and these are smart guys)
