Yes, the benefits of MQA are so glaringly obvious from the first note, that every public demo has been a non-comparison against Redbook. I think there was a vs mp3 once. Yaay.

It's an audiophile elixir, the cure for digititis. It will go back in time and "fix" the ills of the morbid converters used in the recording process, then decode this newfound purity in the present. The missing 90% of the soundfield in these 2ch stereo constructs will be left up to Sherlock...

Dunno, what exactly are they presenting? As noted earlier, it will go low and have wide dispersion at VHF. Wider than a same diameter single dome compression driver that can go as low (apparently 800hz?)

Right, self assessed "objective" types who are self immunized against bias and hate dissenting science views, so make them disappear. Exactly like every believer forum.

Yes, the principle of ring vs dome remains. The D2 is a dual concentric aka coaxial arrangement of rings, the smaller ring produces the upper treble, the larger ring the lower. So you have a point source compression driver that goes low and still has good very HF dispersion. Large domes that can...

Dome Ring radiator: Instead of the voice coil driving the circumference of the dome, it drives the center "ring". So the driven surface radiates more like a donut than a dome. Less flex "distortion" at the center. But also narrower dispersion in the off axis. No free lunch, both have their...

Don't really see any controversy. It's aimed squarely at believers, they'll suck it right up. They're always starving for a new scam and a reason to spend $$ on yet another version ("de-smeared") of 70s rock music. The rest of the world will have moved on ala DVDA and SACD.

Dumb Sucker Digital is perfect for audiophiles to obsess over, since it's so audibly irrelevant.

Right, just like Frank, John etc. What's missing is the audio science. Onset data for the speakers in question and everything else related to the far field, source material, room, listening, etc. I noticed that highly improbable claim. But have yet to see even a single specific of a single...

Yes, your oft repeated, believer claim about "many speakers with beautifully "flat" anechoic measurements are just too perceptually "hot" in the highs in most rooms", is unsupported, unscientific nonsense.

Keep digging you're almost there...

:rolleyes: That must be it.

Flat onset = downward sloping sound power. No one advocates flat sound power.

That is mid/far field, not onset....and you know that...we hope.

I know. Which confirms your state of utter confusion along with all others who repeat the same nonsense. Not one single technically literate sane person advocates for flat far field power. Zero. None. It is the onset, direct on axis, near field (1m or so) frequency response that should, like...

Wrong. The processing takes place inside the skull, the evidence/results are all external. Blinding simply removes the biases and mega self delusions occurring "within the numbskull" from affecting the external results. Your magic HTIB is testable, as are your crazed beliefs involving glue and...

Yes, believer IQ types refer to Olive, Toole et al this way. Yes, severe reading comprehension maladies are part of the Dunning-Kruger package. Along with basic word meaning illiteracy. Thanks for illustrating. Along with IQ, education, reading comprehension, etc, etc. sure. Self awareness is...

Wrong. It's related to his objective claim, quoted. The light waves from your mirror?

Based on what scientific evidence?
