regardless how "absurd" focusing one's attention may be to one individual.

Hi so we are at least in two. Good !
I think that the listening room is fundamental and mine unfortunately is not adequate to get a good result.
I have come to the conclusion that even a only decent system in a good listening room can make wonders for the sonic illusion.
But sometime i have had the opportunities to listen to high quality systems well placed in acoustically treated listening room.
And i was amazed
And i have a particular experience
I was listening to a pair of huge JBL 4350
After the warm up the soundstage was there and it was very strange
Because of course i was seeing the huge speakers but i was not earing them in the sense that the sound was coming clearly from behind the speakers
Other times the sound is so detached from the speakers that they seem even not connected ... this is fascinating for me
I am a 3d soundstage addicted
So with the lights on i can see the speakers but not ear them
There is a conflict between the senses ... and i do not like conflicts in general
But it is always a matter of personal taste of course
Thanks again.
Kind regards,

Hi so we are at least in two. Good !
And many more.
I learned that approach from audio mentors years ago. It is only with my eyes closed that I fully enjoy the experience of walls disappearing and being transported to a completely different space. :)
OMG! Those huge JBLs are the epitome of 1970s "West Coast", rock-n-roll, colored sound. Just awful, unless you're playing The Eagles or Steve Miller Band or Steely Dan.Have you ever seen a graph of that slot tweeter (the 077) or the "acoustic lens"? Yikes!
There's a reason why I invented the term "boom-sizzle" to describe them!

Hi i mention these speakers because it is an extreme case
Of course i was seeing them but i was not hearing them
I had the prejudice that big speakers could not disappear sonically
Instead the sound was coming clearly from behind them
I do not know how to say but they were transparent sonically but not visually and this was strange and fascinating at the same timeAnother case even more evident
Take a pair of good planars. You see them because they are panels but with the right set up they disappear sonically
Listening in the dark the brain relaxes because it does not seem them
And the all listening experience is more pleasant i think
Kind regards,

Sorry, but that was a common term used for their sound back in the 70s. Google "JBL boom sizzle" and you'll get quite a few hits. :)
...a common internet rumor about Gore.
He never said he invented it.
"...he was responsible, in an economic and legislative sense, for fostering the development the technology that we now know as the Internet."
As to Inmate51 and his claim - he actually did say it!
"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet."He didn't create diddly. He may have voted along with dozens of others for funding, but there was no creation of anything by him - except of course BS.
Similarly, IM51 did not invent that generic phrase.

Look, I'm not as rich as Al Gore.
Whatever, or, prove me wrong. Show me where anyone else ever used the term before me, or are you a racist.
;)
...I tried to find out where the term was originated, but unfortunately Al Gore's internet posts do not go back to the 1970s.
Let's see...you must have been about 10 years old when you coined that term.
Look, I'm not as rich as Al Gore.
He made quite a fortune with speaking engagements pitching his inconvenient truth.
...he made the most - $70 million - by selling his Current TV network.
But apparently, he was never "dead broke" like some others...
I just think its incredibly funny about his claim to the *creation* of the internet - years after the networking protocols and very name itself were established.
Maybe he *created* the wheel, too. He is most certainly laughing all the way to the bank. :)
...if you read the link I posted, you know he never said that.
Who would make up something like that?
I wonder.
......if you read the link I posted, you know he never said that.That? That what? He most certainly is quoted as saying he "created the internet". That quote is found in the second paragraph of your Snopes reference. Did you actually read your link? That's just too funny.
By all means, quote anything I've actually said and comment on that reality.
Thank you.

...hope your knee didn't hit your chin.
right?
A guy takes a nap for a couple hours, and the whole world goes upside-down.
;)
Maybe I invented the term. Maybe several people did at about the same time - that would be cosmic, dude.
