Thank you for continuously educating the hifi community! Since I am heavily into measurements and analysis right from the start, I had so many discussions with hifi friends that dismissed stats and measurements completely. And I understand why they do that: way too often the stats and graphs do not match the listening experience! Why? Because the numbers are made to look pretty - and the graphs as well. You know how to do that, we know it from you. But the average hifi enthusiast does not know that. We reached a point where manufacturers and marketing people have published so many misleading or outright manipulated data sheets that a large share of the community dismisses measurements altogether. That's a sad thing to watch.

We know that a 0° measurement alone means nothing. Yet all too often that's what people compare. Sellers taking advantage of uneducated (or ignorant) customers reinforce this vicious circle..

Another very excellent, informative video by Amir. To be perfectly frank I don't think there has ever been anyone who did more for the audiophile community for so little in return. Just stating the obvious. In watching this video it becomes very apparent just how inherently difficult the task of measuring a loudspeaker's frequency response really is. To the novice who isn't deeply involved with this important aspect of loudspeaker engineering, it may seem that it is a simple matter of sweeping a tone from 20 Hz to 20 kHz and capturing readings of SPL along the way. But right off the bat there is a problem with this, because if you simply capture readings of SPL at each frequency, the reading will include the SPL contributions of the various harmonic distortion components produced by the speaker at each specific test tone frequency. You then have to ask whether the frequency response measurement should or shouldn't include this. Ultimately this is a philosophical question because there isn't any formula or equation to tell you the answer. If you include the distortion, you're measuring the speaker's total acoustic output for each frequency of stimulation, within the audio spectrum. But is this really what you want to measure? If you find that at 100 Hz there is a strong 2nd harmonic, then when the test tone is 200 Hz, should the extra 200 Hz energy emitted when the speaker is stimulated at 100 Hz be included in the response measurement for 200 Hz? Presumably not, and yet if you play white noise you will hear an emphasis at 200 Hz that won't be reflected in the measurements if you don't include, for the 200 Hz measurement, the 200 Hz acoustic energy emitted by the speaker when stimulated with frequencies other than 200 Hz. Clearly, there is nothing simple about a simple measurement of a loudspeaker's frequency response. Something that is conceptually simple is actually very complex. Amir has been personally committed to this field of knowledge for a very long while, and a major reason that he understands it better than many others is that he has an advantage that many of the other people who do videos for KZbin don't have. Amir's advantage is that in his pursuit of this knowledge, he has applied the kind of basic knowledge that, with very few exceptions, is only obtainable via formal education in high-quality schools. This is important, and it is something that certain other people who make videos for KZbin do not have. It is a bit irksome that there are people who, due to lack of knowledge and experience and just plain common sense, are disinclined to listen to Amir's advice and are more disposed to become apologists for snake oil peddlers.

I was a big fan of NWAVGuy until he fell off the face of the Earth years ago, I am sure he had his reasons. I just bought my fist "system" consisting of a Yamaha RX-V385 and a set of Emotiva TZero+ speakers. I feed it digital audio from CDs from a Sony UBP-X700. I think it have it sounding pretty good. I tried out the YPAO function of the AVR and it seems to do something, but can't quantify it. I was reading extensively about REW today and I have a UMIK-1 on the way. I figured that was probably one of the best investments I could make to improve sound quality. I am really looking forward to absorbing what I can from these videos and from the forum. My ultimate goal is to apply my knowledge of electronics to help others avoid paying way too much for good sound. Thank you so much for bringing some sanity to consumer audio. Tony

Didn't know about the Sine Chirp, very interesting. Regarding THD measurements, we have relatively high tolerance level for THDs. Next step should be to investigate intermodulation of many signals in the transducers.
@AudioScienceReview2 жыл бұрын
As I have noted elsewhere, intermodulation is very hard to measure. With one tone, I can set two speakers to have the same amplitude. With two tones, that is not possible if frequency response is different which is always the case with speakers. Change the ratio of those two tones and even if the distortion is the same, IMD will be different. There is also the challenge of which two tones to pick. Due to crossover frequencies varying, you can't be assured that the upper tone lands in the same driver.
