Thats why I have a hard time interjecting brands of speakers anymore because everyone hears something different.
You can say that again! While I was young we had "Audiolab" catalogs where you could get several high end speaker types in one place. I was partial to the "Klipschorn" due to the mechanics of them using the wall as an extension of the horn, brilliant IMO and I knew someone who had enough money to buy a pair... they were loud and sounded great for "rock". Todays bass and hip hop fanatics would probably laugh at them.
I took my first wife in to a high end stereo store in Michigan (forgot the name) but I would switch from one brand to the other and ask her opinion. It was always "that one is louder". She couldn't tell the bass from the midrange.
Anything even stock would be better than the busted one I have LOL.
Again I had a great conversation addition and for whatever reason I've lost a second one today alone by a misplaced click. Gawddddammmmmmnnnitt !!!
From what I can remember of it all.
Very familiar with Klipsch horns. They're meant to be full range loud and although Rock music may naturally sound better on them, i assure you that you can listen to anything on them and they'll be equally impressive. Those tho practice and even preach of the "one note bass box" religion - easily discernible by the method of constantly fiddling with EQ, Bass, Loud settings to keep the lower tones playing loudly at the same constant rate have no appreciation for real sound or the artists impressions and intent for their own music. I say that boldly because its true. Ive seen some rock and country music put some Hip-hop and other lower tone based music to shame in some aspects and I listen to it all for the most part and genre wise. Its how I keep an ear for tuning in many things. And even the tuning of music and recorded materials is deeper than you would think and i believe relative.
I found it interesting in how and why we all hear something differently. Apparently since 1939, a controversial time in history alone and something else comes along to add to it of course. Much of the music we hear of or know has been tuned at 400-500 hz Industry standard today is 440hz whereas the longest time it was 432 hz. 432 hz is also the basis of being harmonized with nature and correlates and divides with the 8hz the planet resonates at. To me it sounds better, richer tones, less harsh highs and mids seem rounded but most audible still.
Hope someone appreciates the extra content here, i know some are rolling their eyes already. LOL
440hz is called the "Stuttgart Pitch" which if you follow history, world history at all in part. Stuttgart Germany is the 6th largest city in Germany and the origination point of many things. Sorry the German in me took fancy to the historical aspects. Not only is Stuttgart the birthplace of the very first petrol (gas) powered car but the origins expanded from there relate to Calvary horses breeding and cars. The name comes from 'Stutengarten' which is an archaic form of the German word 'Gest¼t', meaning stud yard. Those of you who fancy a Porsche should also know that not only does the black horse in the coat of arms like logo represent the German "stud yard" Stuttgart, Porsche originated from there, that's why it is in their logo. But the peculiarity for me is and follows from a so called story.
The story goes as; Essentially Swabian ravioli from southwestern Germany, Maultaschen are a kind of pasta filled with spinach, sauerkraut, breadcrumbs and sometimes minced meat. They may seem innocent enough, but their Swabian name 'HerrgottbscheiŸerle' means 'Lord God Deceivers'. This comes from a legend involving a Cistercian monk from the Maulbronn monastery, 40km north-west of Stuttgart, (hence the name 'Maultasche').
The monk allegedly wanted to eat meat during the Lent fasting period and hid meat in the usually vegetarian filling of his Maultasche in the hope that by sneaking it under a pastry cover, God wouldn't notice. Hence the term - "Lord God Deceivers"
What makes the quinky-dink here is the controversy that has surrounded the 432hz vs 440hz arguments and debates.. If you see how disruptive 440hz looks visually in comparison. You might even think back to a time when you couldn't focus on even finding an address or a place to park and had to turn down your music. May make you think back and wonder why. here ya go.
So if you take into consideration the disruptive nature, the intent to make 440hz the industry standard, all the relative thoughts and actions involved - Wouldn't you be led to believe that there is some deceiving work involved when we look at the entertainment industry as a whole from videos and music to tel-a-vision and the weird occult like world being revealed to us in todays world? maybe its just me.
Jamman, as a guitar player and those others musically inclined may find the following interesting enough:
I know a little deep for such a simple post but knowledge is power and my attention span reaches far beyond that of a refrigerator light.. lol
