How good is good enough?

mesch, good answer! 

“You do know that Choueiri himself has been a big spatial/object based audio/multichannel music connesieur in real life, right? as are many other known names in industry (A Jones, J Stoddard, Levinson, etc). The truth is...he can’t get anywhere near it because of all the patents held by Sony, Yamaha, Dolby, Auro, etc.”

I know for a fact that he considers multichannel to be as it is to be wrought with problems and plainly inferior. If there are going to be any arguments based on what Edgar believes let’s keep it real. I know this fact because I was standing right next to him when he said it. If you doubt me you can easily ask him for yourself through the Theoretica website. 

“He has to make a living as well and so he’s tailoring/marketing something to the 2 channel orthodoxy. You are getting stuck with his marketing lingo, as if it is a miracle like none other. It is fine for what it is (and that’s about it).”

He makes an excellent living as the head of the advanced propulsion department of Princeton University. BACCH is home s passion project. Your mischaracterization of him, his motives and his beliefs are pretty disgusting. 

“I will only say that his solution is not perfect nothing is but it is not a gadget improvised between other patented solutions... It is a bit more interesting ...”

You won’t say it but I will, the BACCH SP offers a near perfect rendering of spatial cues. The limiting factor is the source material. It’s easy to demonstrate. You can literally record a voice or musical instrument anywhere in the listening space with the BACCH in ear microphones -and compare the spatial accuracy that recording to the original source in it’s actual position anywhere in the room. The positioning is the n distinguishable if the system and room are good enough. What more could anyone ask than near perfect spatial reproduction? 

Thanks scottwheel for saying what i know because i read and understood what Choueiri was speaking about ...

But i cannot say it the way you describe it because i never hear it and never own the BACCH system ...

Anybody with minimal acoustic knowledge know it if he read about it seriously ... It is the reason why i advocated for this "revolution" and not a gadget and why i ask to you to spoke about it to people here who confuse it with a toy for movie effect ...

In truth it is a revolution who rival the transition from mono to stereo ...

- I was having a conversation with another decent guy on this thread, not you (because i think this whole forum understands by now... what kind of vile/disgusting most of your comments are)

- But, keeping it real, we all know what measly sum a university professor with his PhD and the Ackers distinguished or whatever makes in this country. We would also know how much his PhD students got paid for all the hard work. You wouldn’t know, would you now, DeVry? You could paint houses 3 days a week and beat that paygrade real easy (keepin it real, livin the American dream, Merica!)

- But, if it is a passion charity project and Chouieri’s doing charity, that would be a tad false, lol. Bacch’s pricing structure is pretty obvious. He wouldn’t have partnered with MSB (vultures) as a charity event now, would he? I am happy for the good professor and his PhD students making some cash because its always the dumass (keepin it real) making money in this country. It’s a good change that the good professor is making some money instead..

Go get yourself a MSB reference now Scotty, keep it real.
