Post Subject: Our short Audio StoryPosted by Amir on: 12/23/2018
what is audio ?
Audio is our reaction to sound , if there are audiophiles with different reactions then you may convince yourself Audio quality is relative to listener.
I think it is not true. The real quality exist itself .
Very very few audiophiles can view the right direction , yes i believe there is right direction and there is wrong direction.
The Audio Story of all audiophiles in my city Tehran is very similar .
Let me tell the story :
They start the game with impressive sound of highly silent extended high resolution sound. I name it “Macro linear systems”. Audio Measurements of these components are perfect .
They pay more for more refined sound like replacing mcintosh with Solution or replacing transparent cable with acoustic revive and ...
They improve their sound just in that direction. Magazines are ready to service this group of audiophiles . Some of them (very few) after some years ask themself why the sound of cheap car stereo is more engaging than those million dollors audio system?!
They will try to go for tube and analog world and they replace a impressive sound with more dynamic more emotional sound.
Most of them play limited bandwiths loudspeakers. I name it “Micro Linear System”
Art Dudly write for those audiophiles. Audio Measurements of these components is not good.
Very few from this group will ask themselves where is the power of music?!
They go for extended high dynamic range high sensitivity multi way loudspeaker to get both emotion and power of music. The Audio measurements of these systems is good.
In The last level they listen to pure energy of music and no other experience equals to it. Both macro and micro structure of sound is perfect.
I believe all of our efforts (time research money) is worth when you get those sound.
After having a good system i think without Good speaker position (hiding loudspeakers in room and getting maximum dynamic sweep) and without good AC power and without good source (high quality records) we could not get that level.
More than 90% of audiophiles are in the first road , 9% of them are in second road and 1% are in third road.
I am interested to start a 4 way horn loudspeaker but the cost is high . I hope i could do that before 2020.
