In Reply to: "Better quality speakers are not as forgiving" posted by jsm on March 6, 2007 at 11:53:14:
Sometimes it is said that a speaker is so revealing of the faults of a recording that it makes listening to the recording unpleasant. If it was more pleasant with a poorer speaker, than I would say something is wrong with these "revealing" speakers. At best, the way the poorer speakers hide the problems of the recordings is by contributing problems of their own that mask the recording's problem. And this is supposed to be an advantage? I have found that many times "very revealing" or "highly resolving" speakers get that way by being tipped up at the high end. They can make many quite respectable recordings with perhaps a bit of roughness at the high end sound terrible because they themselves are contributing to the problem by brightening the sound. They make the recording sound worse than a "poorer" speaker because, in my opinion, they are in fact the inferior speaker.Joe
