| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. @livinon2wheels He does and says things I don't agree with and I left a lengthy comment on one of his threads on YT and told him how and why I thought he was incorrect. He vehemently disagreed with my assessment and as he wouldn't engage in a f... | |
| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. As any speaker designer knows, a really flat speaker sounds terrible. A flat FR does not by itself define the sound quality of a speaker. Personal experience with multi $K speakers universally reviewed as great sounding with flat FR. They wer... | |
| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. Isn't the obvious question why is he reviewing/modding and slagging a 13yr old iteration of the WWP? You need to actually pay attention. NOT a review. Danny did not select the speakers, an owner sent in unhappy with the Wilsons. Second video... | |
| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. Isn't this a "review" by a competitor who mostly criticizes the design choices made by Wilson for the Watt/Puppy? No, it is not a review. An unhappy Wilson owner sent the speakers to Danny. That is how it goes and this is less a review than... | |
| ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS Just out of pure curiosity, I wonder how many people on this thread are members of organizations such as the Audio Engineering Society (A.E.S.), or related groups such as the Acoustical Society of America (A.S.A.) or similar. What does membersh... | |
| ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS Objective vs Subjective has been around forever. All credibility is lost when measurements are used to claim a $200 and $2000 piece of gear will undeniably sound the same if the they measure the same. Not stopping there, any item deemed expensiv... | |
| Resistor Burn-in Methods A resistor of any technology properly selected for the application should NOT add, subtract, or color sound in any way. Quality of the basic material and construction matters. Dirt cheap anything is not good. Neither does expensive or exotic gu... | |
| Open baffle speakers Coke vs. Pepsi. There is no right or wrong. Neither type of speaker is unquestionably technically superior. In my limited experience with a small number or audio enthusiasts, a majority moved to open baffle from box speakers. All described a m... | |
| Open baffle speakers But, give me 3 hours and I'll build you a open baffle speaker in my garage and the sound of it will get you jawdropped. I already know which pro drivers to use and how to build your crossover. I'll charge 20k just for kicks and laugh all the way ... | |
| Open baffle speakers Open baffle sonic benefits do not surpass boxed speaker designs from engineers who know their stuff. Two different sonic presentation, nothing to do box speaker designers knowing their stuff. Open baffle is much easier/cheaper to design/build. E... | |
| Do your ears deceive you? Long ago a friend went crazy over a couple speakers designed by a Professor of Engineering. The Prof claimed to have found the magic enclosure dimensions and configuration for flat 20-20K response from a single 4 inch driver. Also claimed a perf... | |
| If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments? @immatthewj More likely an AI programmed to be make illogical, whiney, rambling, irritating posts that dismiss facts and logic provided by those trying to be helpful. | |
| Mobile Fidelity Settlement Update I don’t think he meant that literally... But, mofi’s process has been the most foolproof w.r.t mitigating unnecessary abuse of the tape and offering the best fidelity on vinyl. Bingo. There are factors of context involved. MoFi decided on a pr... | |
| Mobile Fidelity Settlement Update Y'all need to deal with facts of this controversy. After 1980 there was digital manipulation of every mix transferred to a Master Tape. So an analog master tape from after 1980 transferred directly to vinyl today is not 100% analog. Before 1980... | |
| Mobile Fidelity Settlement Update @invalid by your logic an inferior quality LP is the preferred end product. The all analog purists that started this ridiculous tempest in a teapot would happily pay a premium for an inferior product, Right? Taste of the sausage is all that cou... |
