    without plotting the frequency response, taking dB measurements (at 1 meter distance) and not mentioning the specs, this just seems like a standard marketing ploy. the first two might not be something your familiar with, but the third you should definitely bring up. otherwise there is a significant possibility that the price has a placebo effect for you, making you think the speaker sounds better than it actually does.

    As the studio engineer for the last 20 years, I can cosign what he saying in that for a Bluetooth speaker. The base is insane. Now I haven’t measured the decibel however I can say it’s on par with our studio speakers that I use from mastering but it’s only, exceptional at base. The high in mid leave much to be desired for though they are above the average for a Bluetooth speaker, but not above the average for a Bluetooth speaker of that size by much.

    I had the fortunate "ultimate base" experience of being less than five feet away from a full grown male african lion during a photoshoot. Ralph was getting a bit cranky and let out a protest growl as if to say, "I've had enough of this shit for one day..." and refused to exit his enclosure when called. My entire 6"2" 235 pound frame reverberated with that growl and everyone else in the studio froze. It was an extraordinary form of physics to experience and almost felt electrically shocking! The handler just replied, "Okay, you're the boss, we'll head home."

    Hmm, a permanent magnet forming a spring, with some electrical thing in it. Put a piece of cardboard on that "Spring" and youve basically got a speaker. You know this kinda reminds me of Yamahas active servo tech, with its negative impedance thingy. Although that one actually has some stuff going on and the speakers I have with active servo do sound fantastic.

  • @Glenintheden
    @Glenintheden20 күн бұрын

    No mention is made how this so-called negative spring will change anything about the physics of the relationship between the thiele small parameters of the driver and the speaker cabinet. For any given driver and its parameters, there is a limit to what sound pressure level it can achieve without distortion if its inside an acoustic suspension cabinet. No evidence is provided that this speaker changes that limitation. What I suspect is going on is that the qtc is so high that a strong bass boost is provided in the bass frequencies most noticed by most listeners, thus giving the impression that the bass is extraordinary; even though the same could probably be achieved with an ordinary driver, given the proper ts parameters, with the same sized cabinet.

    If something does break the laws of physics, there will be new papers, scientific debates, and the science world will go crazy! Physics isn't all about truth, sometimes we learn the things that can be proven wrong in future! For example, In the late 19th century, classical physics couldn't explain the spectrum of radiation emitted by a blackbody (an idealized physical body that absorbs all incident electromagnetic radiation). According to classical theories, the radiation intensity should increase without limit as wavelength decreases, leading to the so-called "ultraviolet catastrophe. Another one can be that In 1905, Albert Einstein extended Planck's idea to explain the photoelectric effect, where light shining on a metal surface ejects electrons. Classical wave theory of light couldn't explain why only light above a certain frequency could eject electrons, regardless of its intensity. Einstein proposed that light itself is quantized into particles called "photons," each carrying a quantum of energy proportional to its frequency. This idea was revolutionary and eventually earned Einstein the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921... There are many more examples like these, and that's how science itself changes a lot based on our observations and calculation!

    If you want a bassy speaker then you don't want a good speaker. Bass Reflex speakers produce a longer lasting bass reponse that will remove clarity from the sound eventually. Acoustic Suspension speakers produce the best sound but they need beefier amps capable of getting the vibrating surfaces where they need to be. I don't have the money to get neither of those so I use Bass Reflex speakers. BTW, with modern digital amplifiers Hoffman's law doesn't apply - it did apply in 1961 when the only way to get good amps was by using vacuum tubes. Since the Tripath release the TA2020, digital amps became good with nice SNR and low distortions. Tripath was eventually purchased by Texas Instruments. "Laws of Physics" aren't actually Laws - they are models that describe the physical worls as we perceive it. In the late 19th century Physicists were sure they could describe the physical world perfectly - with the exception of a few minos discrepancies. Thoser were the orbit of Mercury, the speed distribution of molecules in gases, the ultraviolet collapse when black bodies were heated and some weird black lines that showed up when a wide enough spectrography of light coming from stars were produced. The first problem (Mercury's orbit) was solved by Einstein's Relativity and the other ones by Quantum Physics. And even after that we still think we live in the in the Newtonian world ... a world where everything can be explained by simple mechanistic relationships. What made the world we live in turn into an improved version of Hell is the ideas propagate by Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan: The British PM made us believe there's no society just individuals while the former Hollywood B movie actor simply got a microphone and said "Greed is good". Now we have problems that, if we don't fix them, will end human life on Earth - and these problems aren't linear and escape Math's ability to long term predictions. Meanwhile, we became linear bots who think how much money one has is the only measure of someones value.

    hoffman's equation makes it clear you have to trade between size, bandwidth and power, _at a given efficiency_. use a more efficient design, get more out of your speaker/enclosure combo. this is achieving the same goal as existing servo subwoofers running in an under-dampened configuration.

    ​@@mattb4251I have 2 JTR Captivator 4000ULFs in my home theater. 4 18s total, 520lbs of pure, house destroying subsonic bass. 110dB at 10Hz, 125dB at 20Hz. My first sub was an SVS PB-1000 I got on sale for about $400, bigger than that Genelec (although arguably not as good, better value for sure though). I'm willing to bet that Bluetooth speaker doesn't even have as much bass as my Wharfedale bookshelves.

    @@aironorphan I do not agree. It's not an exact science, but if you use a particular set of speakers or headphones over time, you can begin to predict what a recorded speaker will sound like in real life. Plus, you can occasionally get a visual reference. For example, in this video, I would've put some small everyday items on the table and turned up the volume. Seeing the objects bounce around would be a great illustration of its power.
