Some thoughts on ASR and the reviews
But wait a minute is Akpan J. essien right about sound ? Yes he is... This article confirm completely his book thesis which i had by the way ... Human perceive sound source with their body and as meaningful because they are able to detect QUALI...

Prof when 2 person discuss together one argument must be opposed by another arguments.. Then one must ground his argument in science facts ( research acoustic papers) not mantras about the debunking of cables with measuring tools.. No thinking a...

I wrote about a specific cable to illustrate how measurements can speak to how something "sounds." Please read more carefully. And yourself when you quoted me have you understand what i had written? this is what i said, «For sure we can tell b...

People who actually understand measurements can tell quite a bit about how a product will sound.  The fact you can't doesn't change that.   You dont understand that a piece of gear with good specs does not  means that this piece will worl the ...

So...by measurements you can tell certain sonic claims are false, and also that if you replace a cheap cable with the Nordost cable, it won't have any sonic consequences.  You can know it will SOUND the same...from the measurements. Prof are yo...

I base my decisions for audio gear only by how they connect me to the music emotionally. I realize this is just flowery nonsense for tech-heads. I don’t care how a product measures as long as it connects me to the music. I envy a person who sits ... 
Should we care if a piece of equipment comes from a pet-free, kid-free, smoke-free home?
When a cat (especially a former feral one) chooses you and attaches herself to you, that is pure love...   When i was 18 years old, i had a cat, very savage non tamed one who only sleep in my bed and lives outside... He once attacked viciously...

@mahgister Behind the ’apparently scientific’ facade some of these guys are posing under, it is largely a utilitarian life for these ASR types (eat, plug cables into audio precision kit, garbage in/garbage out, look at graph, go to sleep, think...

By the way "distortion" is not just a defect... ( measured in THD ) 😁 It may be a quality... Some musician use it for expression and poetic diction too ... Then distortion as in speech transmission index (STI) which predicts speech intelligibil...

Some are not here to exhange about audio experience. But they are here to sell gear or worst their own ideology... They cannot be convinced , they dont think , they used their tools. Period. 😊

The perception of timbre is not a deluded perception of some subjective coloration or the extraction of a ratio from a pure Fourier map... It is the recognition of a physical set of invariants in the vibrating sound source or affecting it ... ( Py...

@mahgister   You miss the point. Everything you wrote is moot unless it is the case, for any example, that we really are able to detect a sonic difference. The most reliable method of doing this is listening ...

Thanks terry9 For you simple on point and very clear post...And short post also... I cannot say the same about all  mine ... 😁 😊

Amir actually believes that all things coming out of your stereo can be measured and even subtle differences will show up in testing. Why wouldn’t that be the case? Remember why we usually create tools, especially measuring tools? Because of ...

Good posts for me prefab Thanks and welcome... And about Amir, i must add that to evaluate really a piece of gear we must do it also by listening for sure but listening in the same acoustic under control  conditions and with the same other piec...
