| Tidal Speakers owners Quanmer, I am in no way saying that I dislike my Tidals. It is also possible that I am playing them loudly because they can take it and the signal I am sending is so clean. I am just trying to understand why I am playing a such a much higher level... | |
| Why do intelligent people deny audio differences? There are all the same arguments in this thread-prove to me you can hear a difference, listeners are delusional, physics says there are no differences, charlatans are always eager to take people's money versus I like what I hear. I have two brothe... | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Quanmer, that is what I was thinking, but the volume relative to the 86 db speakers suggests much lower. | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Argyro, I agree. I have the BMC M1 amps and play them at somewhere in the range of 53-59 on their volume. Most others who have them place at no more than the 49, including on 86 db efficient speakers. What is the efficiency of the Contriva Diacera... | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Bryoncunningham, the Munich audio show is going on now with many listening to quality speakers and deciding which sound better. Jorn may not respond quickly. | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Roysen, You say, "Please then imagine there existed a single measurement tool which shows neutrality. This measurement would undoubtably have shown the same degree of neutrality with or without listeners. That is a fact and not subjective." All th... | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Holenneck, you refuse to understand what I am saying and to exaggerate what benefit we can get from measurement. I said, "As I said repeatedly, measures of frequency response, phase, and dispersion are goals and used. But there is much beyond this... | |
| How do you judge your system's neutrality? Bryoncunningham , You say, "Or my post from yesterday...People should choose components according to their own preferences, not someone else's.That is another straw man." I must admit it is beyond my comprehension what you are saying here, but as ... | |
| How do you judge your system's neutrality? Mrtennis, I have given up that quest, nor will I trust most who might tell me there is such a speaker. | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Holenneck, no I don't misunderstand. There is much that we know about how to design speakers, such as a good frequency response, wide dispersion, and sometime good phase consistency. But as Jorn suggests speakers with these good characteristics do... | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Jorn, once again I don't understand the statement that neutrality is objective. I agree that comparing what goes in with what comes out is "neutral." However, as you admit frequency response is a measure but is necessary not sufficient for neutral... | |
| How do you judge your system's neutrality? Bryoncunningham, I agree. | |
| How do you judge your system's neutrality? Bryoncunningham, when you are assessing whether component x is neutral in any objective sense, you have to use measures that others will agree or valid. If you use multiple measures, you have to further argue how they interface or what weight shou... | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Roysen, we are communicating but I have no comprehension of why you say what you do. Your argument again that "So neutral is not subjective" just makes no sense to me.It is probably best that we just leave it there. | |
| Tidal Speakers owners Roysen, I am at a loss as to what you are saying in this post. You say, "Nothing is neutral in regards to audio playback." How can the concept "neutral" have any utility, if what you argue is true?" |
