Why wont speaker companies publish their measurements?


It's not ok to assess the quality of a speaker just by listening to it. Most listeners are not trained. They dont have the skills or knowledge of an expert like me to know what the hell they are listening for. There are too many other variables that affect the sound quality such as room acoustics, source material, amp quality, hearing loss, preference etc. For all these reasons, we MUST rely on speaker measurements ALONE when deciding how good a speaker is. 

The problem is however that the wretched speaker companies WONT DO IT! They just will not publish their measurements. 

Are they embarrassed? Are they hiding it? Do they even have the measurements? Worried they wont match if somebody else does the measurements?

Speaker companies cannot claim that their speaker is superior to a competitors speaker since neither of them will publish their measurements. As a result the claims are uncorroborated HOGWASH. Despite this, there is intense competition among the speaker companies. There is a WAR going on out there and its a war that cannot be won!

The only way to separate the wheat from the chaff is to examine the measurements. Until that happens nobody has the right to claim that one speaker is better than another. Nobody knows which speakers are better than others. Until the day comes when they will publish the data, its all just hearsay and opinions.

If you want to be a first rate audiophile, do not settle for anything less than the TRUTH. We deserve it.

Sorry your Green Mountain Audio speakers didn't work out for you.

Take plenty of time to heal (offline) and hopefully get over it.

I will ask Kenjit the same question i ask every time he posts one of his speaker rants...WHAT SPEAKERS DO YOU OWN?
AudiogoN is not worried about what your opinion is when it comes to forum guidelines.
what guidelines? there are no guidelines. Even if there were, they dont stick to it.
WHAT SPEAKERS DO YOU OWN?
I have a few different ones. They are custom tuned. I dont have a permanent set of speakers because the pursuit of perfection is a lifelong quest. Nothing is ever good enough for me. So things are always being modified.
