Audibility Of Loudspeaker Distortion
…of people's threshold of audibility of distortion. You can take the test right now on your computer, as long as it is connected to a good sound system.The test is an "enforce blind A/B comparison" meaning: 1. You compare two samples A and B, and has to …

…band.
As an aside, the midhorn reduces distortion in its midrange, so has less need for flux stabilized drivers. I've used them and they sound nice, but I wouldn't say the difference is noticeable. In fact, I think I prefer the standard ferrite …

Re: Another perspective
… down.The shorting ring is probably the only distortion (I'm only talking non-linear distortion here) in a loudspeaker that is highly audible at reasonable listening levels and this is easily explained. From my study of distortion (see my web site) I know…

What measurements matter to audibility?
… (notably by Floyd Toole). It seems that low distortion, flatness of frequency curve and to some degree, a uniform off axis decay are preferable over others. A uniform FR curve is +/- 3 db. So, the question is, as long as a design manages to do these, or …

Re: Flanking subs
… frequency beyond audibility. There is also distortion to consider - various kinds of distortion, actually - and ideally the loudspeaker would have no distortion of any kind.

Re: Is the difference in sound quality all in our head?
…y. Glad you posted it.
The audibility of distortions and anomalies could be and should be viewed as a weighted set, with the most audible things factoring in more than the least audible things.
It's relatively easy to measure THD+noise, which is …
