Haralanov, good post, clearly indicative to a person who uses single-driver speakers. :-)


Hahhaha, good sense of humor, as always :-)

First of all, I want to mention that the reason I posted yesterday is not because my “system” has problems with it, but because many people do not recognize this problem as a problem at all, because they have got accustomed to that type of sound presentation during the years of listening to non correct sound and they do not know how much better it can be for the same level of person’s ability to be involved with the music. So yes, you are right – it has to do with our own listening experiences, but the trick is somebody to arrange his system (it depends of the technical part and of course his reference points) in a way to be so expressive, that even the people who listen at the first listening level to be able to understand the musical idea in details, no matter the fact they are musical/audio simpletons (I have witnessed it several times).

I defeated the problem in the end of 2009 and now, after I made my 12” main channel, the problem is practically non-existing. I’m blown away by the Musical River’s authority and sheer power when the music calls upon, even at quiet listening levels – the magnitude of this effect is so high that there is no way to escape it or even to resist it – the only option is to become part of that musical flow and energy… :

The speaker driver caricature above is not a single driver, but it is an abbreviation of several perfectly integrated drivers (!) The lack of sound density around the rabbit’s ears is as wanting to drink some water, but to find there is no water available – only very humid air, so the density of the content is not there, although there is content and ways to extract and consume that content. Turning up the volume does not add water to the humid air (it only adds more humid air) and it also does not break the invisible sound barrier.
