[This thread is now closed as the Tableau dashboards are no longer in service. Please refer to the Master Review Index to see the latest information regarding ASR data + dashboards.]
Hi everyone. I wanted to let folks know about the new version of the Speaker Review Index. Some new features but it can be found in the same location:
To date @pozz has done an incredible job capturing the data from the various speaker reviews/measurements. In an effort to lower his workload a bit I've been working with him the last couple of weeks on rebuilding the speaker database behind the scenes to make data entry easier / faster. That in turn necessitated a re-build of the Tableau dashboard we use for listing the speaker review data.
The new index page has the following dashboards which are tabs on the top:
Speaker Review Index
This dashboard is almost exactly the same as the previous version. (Again, the rebuild was based on having to work off of a new data structure.) However, I'd like to highlight a few new features:
Speaker Rankings
This is a more simplified, visual view of the speaker preference scores.
Speaker Attribute Comparison Tool
Users can compare two numerical speaker attributes in a scatter plot, one on the X axis and one on the Y axis.
---------------------
Going forward I'll be maintaining these speaker dashboards, as well as doing most if not all of the data entry for speakers. (Measurements, teardowns, DIYs, etc.) Hopefully this allows pozz to focus on some other areas as ASR continues to grow. Please PM me (or post on this thread) with:

Speaker Review Index
This dashboard is almost exactly the same as the previous version. (Again, the rebuild was based on having to work off of a new data structure.) However, I'd like to highlight a few new features:
- There is now a Parent Company field in the filter list. This allows you to easily see multiple brands under the same corporate parent. For example: "Harman International" (Infinity, JBL, etc.)
- There is now a Box Type field in the filter list.
- The Tooltip (which you can see if you hover over the Price or PrefScore fields on the right) has been updated with a new layout.
- The Tooltip contains a new field: the Product Page. For newer speakers this will take you out to the manufacturer's product page for this speaker; for older speakers this will typically take you to the owners manual. (If you see a better page than what is listed -- or you find a URL that is broken -- please PM me.)
- You can now search for speaker entries by using the Search box on the upper left.
- Tip: clear all filters -- set them to "(All)" -- before using Search if you want to explore the entire database.
Speaker Rankings
This is a more simplified, visual view of the speaker preference scores.
- First, choose whether you want the standard preference score or the preference score (w/ subwoofer). The control is on the top left.
- Second (optional), choose any of the filters on the left-hand side to narrow down the list.
Speaker Attribute Comparison Tool
Users can compare two numerical speaker attributes in a scatter plot, one on the X axis and one on the Y axis.
- The speaker info appears in the tooltip when you hover over a mark.
- Green marks = recommended by Amir; Red marks = not recommended by Amir.

- feature suggestions
- issues you find with the data
- issues with the dashboards
