1/ sighted impressions that look very much like explanations one could have without doing any test at all. 2/ I don't understand what that BLA interface dBu value is supposed to say. You loop the output of a DAC into its input? It is the DAC and if so are you sure the light tell you about...

You left out more fun. That's achieved when the loudest test signal is 0dB or a handful below. With music that peaks at 80dB we'd get the auditory masking from those much louder signals. Plus, with 80dB peaks the acoustic reflex would have been triggered for most people already. Noticing...

This is so specific. Are you getting called a snob a lot? If you say that kind of crap often, it wouldn't be all that surprising, don't you think?

Finding out accurately our listening level is complicated. The way I do it uses things you are unlikely to have(mic+coupler, a reference IEM with an individual certificate giving the sensi(er4sr), and some plugs, so I can feed the IEM and measure the voltage with a multimeter at the same time...

I strongly suspect it's 4V not 44. The power of 53mW is for 4V into 300ohm. Then for the sensi, from 1V to 4V we get a gain of 12.04dB. You'd actually get 97+12=109dB SPL at 1kHz. So first I'd suggest making sure the specs are the right values and right units. And second, if that predicted...

I did what I should and then more, by now I've read most of his posts(time I'll never get back) his article, the one he took the screenshots from, Monty's article and watched the video(it had been a minute). I did it several times for each by now(to fact-check a bunch of things). Trying to...

@theveterans. sunjam is trying to fool you with a little flattery and a game of replacing dialectic by kindergarten rhetoric, misquoting, strawmaning, cherry-picking, and just a general lack of logical continuity in his make-believe demonstrations. Sure, he's not insulting in form, but the...

If the game has Atmos or some multichannel setting, then there is no saying what a player will use to output the audio. Some guy might be in his man cave with a magnificent multichannel speaker system. I understand the philosophy of wanting a fair game, but that never existed in the first...

What he's demonstrated so far was that: His persona thinks very highly of itself. He can be top poster of the day on Headfi with messages that, upon scrutiny, have no content. End of list. He didn't address any legitimate point made against his Don Quixote narratives. I looked a little and...

@sunjam is the journalist in the Jordan Peterson's "so you're saying" meme.

You get confused because many people use "hard to drive" to mean just about anything. Higher impedance does not mean harder to drive, there is no such rule. It doesn't even ensure how loud a headphone or IEM will be. So of course people who conflate those concepts can say many confusing things...

Yes, I reinterpret while you look right into his soul. Have fun feeding those pointless delusions. I've had enough of pretending to have a logic conversation.

More people who probably did not say it, are saying it. Great, let it be known that the strawman is not targeting just one man anymore.:face_palm: You (also) got it wrong about staircases. People don't try to demonstrate that hires is useless by saying there are no staircases. That makes no...

I was wrong, I imagine I mixed up AD and AK chips. But please don't let someone easily admitting to being wrong, stop you from steady misrepresentation and dishonesty. Your clear errors are all excused and reinterpreted by you, but Monty not repeating in every sentence the entire list of...

You find this to be a proper explanation? How can you have so much tunnel vision and act like you're a critical thinker at the same time? I'm dumbfounded. The facts: -In the video's intro, Monty mentions an article he wrote. That is not the content of that video you referenced and pretend to...
