In Reply to: Has rock music strongly impacted audio design? posted by tinear on June 8, 2012 at 11:13:43:
"The sound signature of the genre certainly is quite different from the jazz or classical sphere."
"Sound signature of the genre", is either oversimplified or unadulterated nonsense.
"It also may have influenced listeners who demand classical music to have more "oomph," to be experienced at levels not possible in "live" situations."
This is so wrong on so many levels, you must be referring to yourself.
"(A small aside: this appears mainly to be an American phenomenon; Japanese, British, German, and Scandinavian amps and speakers appear far more modest, on the whole...)."
There is no American phenomenon either! "Far more modest, on the whole" is gibberish.
