[quote=Edchris177]Decades ago I used to have speakers big enough to use as tables at parties. I took a course in college on the "science of sound".
That was one of the most useful courses I ever took. After that I went to the Bose 901s, and the tiny Acoustimass system, with the subwoofer you can hide anywhere in the room.
Dr. Bose is an MIT Grad, he really understood the physics behind sound, no more humongous speakers for me. People still laugh at the tiny AM5 speaker modules, & claim you can't get bass out of small speakers...until I crank them up. They are usually the same people who think 200 watts RMS must be twice as loud as a 100 watt system, or that a system should be rated at .015% total harmonic distortion, & vinyl is better than digital MP3. Remember when turntables claimed 33 1/3 RPM, digital control, with no greater than 1/100 of an RPM divergence? Unfortunately our ears, & speakers are still analog systems, & we cannot decipher even a full RPM error...sober, might make an interesting lab whilst under the influence.:lol:[/quote]
