T and D conclusions (Off Topic)

Hi Cappy

I see it a bit differently.

Me too...now having tried it...

The people that buy BD-Design products and populate this forum gravitate
here because of the way we hear. We are in the 5% minority of audiophile
listeners that hear in "a certain way".

My no value comment : How many knows this forum? All who share the common "truth"?
Not many audioists knows the forum here...I beleive.

It isn't so much that the class-d/class-t amps are a bad match with the
Orphean. It is that the class-d/class-t amps, in general, suck.

I can only confirm, except one guy known to me, who are just about in the Nirvana stage with his newly aquired NF 9 REF and his 88 db/watt 3 way speakers.

That rising top end is only the tip of the iceberg and in my opinion not
at all the worst thing about them at all. They produce distortion
products detectable throughout the frequency spectrum. They have a cold,
soul-less sound with nasty metallic colorations.

Mjeah..in a way. Some have for sure this stamp. However it seems to tweak a lot of dull sounding speakers to the better subjectiv handshake with the brains listening to it?
My brain didn't handshake with any of them.

The Orpheans are more revealing than many other speakers. So the true
nature of the amps is going to come out easier. But I couldn't listen to
them on any other speaker either, I believe. Not without wanting to punch
a hole through a wall in about 30 minutes.

Warp speed here.

Now before I sound too elitist, I have to say that this is my personal
taste. There is no right or wrong, there is only what we prefer. Our
ears and brains can process sound differently.

This is a real truth. Why does this subject listening to audio cause so many discussions. There are no ultimate way of hearing things, eventhough Gurus around claim they own the "truth" and by that "knows"... Ha...

I see this all the time in wine tasting. After 30+ years of oenology, I
pretty much know what I like. My strong opinions can easily affect other
people with less experience, but just because I think most Australian
Syrahs are as a rule execrable doesn't mean that someone else can't get a
lot of enjoyment out of them.

I'm one of those loving the Australian Syrah and hate the French versions. (Way off topic...and then..not ...not really)

Also, tastes change. Years ago I used to enjoy Australian Syrahs.

Remember them as good years then.

Cheers from Belgrade :drinks:
