Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Because they sound good? (nt)

You have partly answered the question for yourself: "...be good even for most people". 'Most people' does not equal all people. The musical experience is personal as can be the choice of system used to transduce it. There are likely limitless specific reasons why someone might choose a controversial speaker; to reduce them to a simple label (ie. exclusive, snob, etc.) as has been the case in this thread says more about the labeler than labelee and is a barrier to understanding.

There is more that could be said regarding the Most People group, marketing, audio misfits (endearing interpretation please), controversy, and paths more and less trodden, though I have touched on it in a post below.

Two things that might help people contribute in a helpful way (ie. help the understand what you want mean and want):

> With regard to your O.P., why do you want to know?
> Can you provide further examples of controversial and non-contraversial then state you don't want this to deteriorate into a brand battle?

Cheers.
