Empirical observation: the term "triangle" correlates well with the term "drama" on audio sites.
Okay, so it turns out this thread did still have at least one funny joke left in it.Empirical observation: the term "triangle" correlates well with the term "drama" on audio sites.
@amirm a while back, you measured the following device:
https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...und-3-in-1-out-xlr-audio-switch-review.11062/
Would that be suitable as a switcher? It might help cut down on a lot of the potential issues @Pio2001 brought up earlier.
@amirm dose this guy have millions of YouTube subscribers?
As has been mentioned before, A and B need to be decided by random number, rather than swapped every time. Also as previously mentioned, it's good to keep the delay between rounds constant, so the subject can't tell if a swap has occurred or not. Therefore, they should be disconnected and reconnected even if they are not swapped.I think so as well.
Wouldn't actually a setup suffice where GS and a third neutral person are sitting on a desk, separated by a dividing wall:
1. Left: GS with a headphone and control of music which is playing
2. Right: Neutral person with the above ABX switcher and three amps (connected and leveled).
There should be a livestream (at least for amir) filming everything from the side, slightly above that the audience can clearly see what's happening on the table.
For each run, GS has to talk about what he hears (ideally speed, harsh and stuff) and commit on Atom or Magnius playing. Before the next round, the system is in X mode, that music is running to GS headphone, so he can't hear what's going on. The neutral person may switch the connections (swap A and B) now.
Am I missing something?
Amir on YT = 15.3k subscribers
Golden Sound YT = 15.3k subscribers
exactly the same number... go figure
That's not an appropriate way to tell. You need to conduct a double-blind test, where they themselves are not aware of who is who.Indeed, while they measure the same in amount of subscribers the content can easily be told apart, even blind.
I think everyone's really trying hard to focus this thread back on the test itself, rather than pointless litigation of who said what and who is the worse person.I'm really baffled by some people saying 'both sides' etc here. When to me it is very clear one side is pushing the vendetta in this thread and the other is doing the best they can to try and accommodate? Someone said something critical/untrue about you on the internet? Big deal, a fragile ego has really sucked the interest and life out of this potential experiment.

Yes I'm going to do the video regardless.
And I proposed and plan to do that very thing. I have the two amps he compared in the video. I plan to capture the output and perform listening tests. This was proposed on page one of this thread and I supported it. I could even conduct the test live for local people.

What is this rubbish? Amir was quite hard on a Schiit product some time ago, with good cause based on the data. People here and elsewhere were complaining how it changed their sales quite a bit. They responded by developing better products that then measured much better and their market share increased again. So what you are saying makes no sense and is just another silly attempt to discredit ASR and Amir. Play another card peoples... this one is really old hat. Just because it looks like a duck, doesn't mean it quacks like one.I don't understand why you are an apologist for Schiit, or a defender of Schiit's reputation.
I'm guessing as your post is all quotes or something?
There is $1000 on the line plus reputation of schiit and its Magnius amp.

Yeah I tend to look into things a bit before I make unfounded comments... maybe that's just me.Apparently you are sensitive to a broader history.
Surely it is folly to judge a persons credibility on a few posts in one thread? YMMV...I refer *only* to what has been said on *this thread*.

You accused Amir of being an apologist for Schiit… I don't see what else that could be interpreted as. Either you're not standing by your own comment and now trying to obfuscate the issue, or you may need to clarify further.I haven't done that.
So don't then.I have no interest in discrediting anyone.
