...so if you take a few speakers Floyd has measured, correlated and pronounced accurate, which one is the most accurate?
They all sound different.
Follow Ups:
like room placement are considered *unimportant*. I had a "deer in the headlights" interaction with his protege, Sean Olive here . Why would anyone think that optimizing speaker placement is important, right? :)
They regularly skewer the Martin-Logan speaker tested and while that is not one of my favorites, it does require different placement from a monopole box.
It would be interesting if they attempted to put the big Nolas, Scaenas, Wilsons on the "shuffler".
I haven't heard most of them but while I'm sure they sound different I suspect it isn't as different as you suspect. I find it amazing how those that don't get their hands very dirty often doubt those that do. It's one of the reasons the real designers of gear that many of the Audio Asylum no longer contribute which has been a monster loss to the conversations here.

Whatever that means...
Like Peter said and I agreed, measurements are for designers, listening is for audiophiles.
If some want to use measurements to decide what to listen to, more power to them.
And yes, a lot of talented people from the industry, including the audio press, have left because of the know-it-all jerks who post here.
I thought the discussion was about reviewers not measuring , nothing about consumers/audioP ....
...this is Peter's post up above.
