| Putting listening ability to rest - privately This was supposed to be private, guys - but since you’ve made your results public, I think it should be said that audiophilia is about the ability to listen through the noise, big or small - nuance isn’t just about the skill to hear differences of... | |
| Describe the sound of point source loudspeakers? As in a speaker with a single driver that covers the entire frequency range? | |
| Describe the sound of point source loudspeakers? hi there tuberist : ) - is what you meant by 'point source' loudspeakers those that do not have multiple drivers that require crossovers internally and good geometries for their drivers externally, such that the sound waves from each driver arrive... | |
| Science that explains why we hear differences in cables? Thanks for your clarification, perkri, as well as your relevant comments regarding the true nature of science and possibility : )You have made a good case for the combined presence of expressed and intended visual recording being around much longe... | |
| Science that explains why we hear differences in cables? Perkri, I want to tell you that I enjoyed very much your post regarding the comparison between recorded images and recorded sound, as it gave me much to think about. However, I do not think it is an accurate comparison, and that I believe you may ... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Hi pulinap, this response is coming a little late I think - David alerted me to your post regarding the nenuphar, and from a read, I see it in specific reference to ‘holographic imaging, overall balance, and bass performance’.ok then, I’m running ... | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? djones51/ dletch2 - I think I have finally figured out where the dogma lies, and it is silly for us to go on about it. You both believe that all the complexities of timbre can be measured definitively in their passage as signals through a cable, a... | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? “Cables do not transmit sound. The transmit electrical energy, or voltage potentials depending on whether a load is connected or not.” - dletch2The point here is not whether cables transmit sound, but rather, if what we measure of them in reverse ... | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? https://www.google.com/amp/s/abcnews.go.com/amp/Technology/research-helping-scientists-understand-humans-recognize-voices-computers/story%3fid=60699647And so, I wondered - if human beings are not only able to recognise human voices quicker and bet... | |
| What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire? “Finally this article about polynesian "primitive" navigators about to "see" their routes around islands very afar in the pacific is astounding about the INTERNAL GPS of human and say a lot about underestimating the perception of humans ” - mahgis... | |
| The Absurdity of it All “@kevn - I have a couple of tracks I listen to for mids....” - perkriThanks so much for your reply, perkri : ) miijostyn, I didn’t actually describe anything, but was just asking perkri for a few more tracks he uses for his critical listening mom... | |
| The Absurdity of it All ‘Sibilance is a useful one. Nina Simone has a certain way of presenting sssss's. And for whatever reason, when recorded this part of her singing can get quite shrill when played back. I listen for how much clarity there is in those parts.When list... | |
| The Absurdity of it All hilde45/perkri - "perkri, I really enjoyed reading your list of tweaks and the rationales for each of them! I'm still learning, so can you tell me how you listen to each tweak to determine what difference it's made and whether that tweak is workin... | |
| 3D lifelike sound and impeccable measurements - mutually exclusive??? “Measurements all aim at laboratory standards, royally ignoring the requirements of psychoacoustics. That is, we do not measure sound quality as perceived by the human brain. We measure reliability.” - realworldaudioThanks so much for this! It bri... | |
| Why do people care what their speaker wants? Millercarbon, perhaps its only because many audiophiles with way less experience than you either do not realise, or do, that there are so many different ways for speakers to sound, and no single speaker or system will be able to playback every kin... |
