A challenge to the "measurement" camp
I’ve watched some of his video and I actually agree on some of what he said,
but he seems too confident on his insistence on measurement. For those
who expound on the merits of blind test and measurement, why not turn
the table upside down?
Why not do a blind test of measurement? That is I will supply all the measurement
you want, can you tell me which is a better product?
For example, if I have a set of cable, and a set of measurement for each
individual cable, can you tell me which is the best cable based on measurement
alone? I will supply all the measurement you want.
After all, that is what you’re after right? Objective result and not subjective
listening test.
Fast forward to 8:15 mark where he keeps ranting about listening test
without measurement.

By the way, is he getting paid by Belden? Because he keeps talking about it
and how well it measures. I've had some BlueJean cables and they can easily
bettered by some decent cables.

rja May I suggest you all start reading the "Audio Science Review" site? You will find that measurements are everything, nothing else matters. >>>>Thanks for the warning! ⚠️ |
To a distant observer 👀 clocks ⏰ near a black hole would appear to tick more slowly than clocks ⏰ further away from the black hole. Due to this effect, known as gravitational time dilation, an object falling into a black hole appears to slow as it approaches the event horizon, taking an infinite time to reach it. This is not theoretical, gentle readers. Light cannot escape from a black hole, not because of the extreme gravity of the black hole, light has no mass, but because spacetime is so curved/contorted in proximity to the black hole the path light takes bends back on itself. The volume of space where spacetime is distorted extends waaay beyond the actual black hole, out to the event horizon and beyond, the black hole itself is tiny, perhaps the size of a grapefruit for a small black hole. |
The premise of this thread is the OP said he could produce measurements and challenged anyone to pick a best cable. For example, if I have a set of cable, and a set of measurement for each He's asked for measurements then moves the goal posts wanting to know how anyone could possibly interpret the measurements without ever producing any. How do you decide? Each cable will dip and bump at different freq. My point is you can't tell by just looking at the frequency response. They way I decide has nothing to do with your original question. My point is I can tell just by looking at the frequency response of the speaker as long as the measurements are taken in the same way. Use the same system and room switch the speaker cables take measurements from the same position. How will I decide? I'll just pick one since they will basically be the same unless one of the cables is fence wire. The speaker and room will swamp any deviations of a cable and after all that's what you listen to not cables. |
