Frequency response at the ear drum
Thanks for taking the time for the detailed explanation! On a side note, Spectral Leakage would be a fantastic name for a death metal band.- bfreedma

I no longer feel it’s necessary to be subtle. The level of ignorance in your posts and blog is embarrassing. You’re obviously lying about your educational background. Please go away and spend a decade or so actually getting the education you claim to have.- bfreedma

Thanks for clarifying and your understanding of why I continued to respond to an obvious troll I have a feeling Castle and some of the site mods had a large number of items in their Inbox this morning. One easy way to reduce gaps in site mod availability would be to take on an additional mod...- bfreedma

You’re welcome. It’s hard to convey to anyone who didn’t follow last nights posts how bad that thread got, so I understand why you were disappointed your content got caught up in the thread deletion.- bfreedma

It was, by a large margin, the worst poster and thread I’ve ever encountered on Head-Fi. The first 10 posts were fairly normal trolling. After that, the OP lost his mind and posted zero content related to audio. The next 100 were on the topics I listed. Edit: The OP is now ranting on the...- bfreedma

Without quoting the original post, it’s impossible to tell what you’re responding to. You really think the thread deleted last night was the run of mill trolling we typically see? Were there previous threads that included nazis, gender bigotry, religion and ethnicity? If so, I must have...- bfreedma

I’m lost - we’re supposed to be nice to a troll who dives into Nazis, bigotry, personal attacks and religion? Posters in sound science tend to get firm responses based on their initiation of insults. I’m not in favor of coddling obvious trolls, though I do think most of them are best ignored...- bfreedma

Having been part of a moderator group on another platform, it really doesn’t work. Too many back channel conversations and disagreements about what and who can stay or go leading to some hard feelings amongst the moderators. Yesterday’s thread was the first time in my 12 years here that a...- bfreedma

As someone who had a lot of posts in yesterday’s thread, I’m glad you deleted it. The OP’s post content was reprehensible and there really wasn’t anything worth preserving. After the first 10 or so posts, there was zero content regarding audio.- bfreedma

Low Pass freq for crossover for LSR305 for adding subs
80hz is is where bass loses its directionality so that’s generally where subs are crossed over. Location flexibility with a sub also provides options to address room modes. The location of your main speakers may not be ideal for bass reproduction. Subs are able to produce more bass that the...- bfreedma

The bias in the question was intentional. The intent was to demonstrate the bias of the LLM by attempting to have the ML engine response limited to audio science and avoid marketing material. The LLM/ML engine was unable to remove the subjective viewpoint from its response.- bfreedma

Good question about 3.5 vs. 4.0 Yes, GPT4 is better than GPT3.5 when used by ChatGPT. Microsoft copilot uses a similar architecture to ChatGPT, but does not utilize as full an implementation as ChatGPT and is also very early in its initial public release. I don’t think one could definitively...- bfreedma

I did read it for myself, apparently before you did. Your original post was simply 56%=Pass, with no reference to test sample count. I even referenced the 10 test, 80% Pass from the link. Thanks for catching up though. Without deep diving into the basics of statistical analysis, any single...- bfreedma

Typical - you cherry picked from a post you didn’t bother to read. Good to know that you believe any single result from a Google search is an accurate representation of, well, anything. No need for validation or cross reference - someone on the internet posted something, so research complete…...- bfreedma

You conveniently left out the number of trials correlating with a lower % correct to consider passing. I disagree that 56% is a “pass” but your posted link shows that 56% was assuming 160 tests. Your link also shows an 80% success rate as a “pass” with 10 tests. Very few ABX tests and test...- bfreedma

Yup. That’s going to require “real” AI that can make independent decisions about the validity of the training data. We’re some time away from that being commercially available. Until then, ML responses are heavily driven by the biases of the coders who decide what content to utilize in their...- bfreedma

Agreed. A simple reworking of the question gets a different response. Still not accurate, but at least less definitive. Follow on to earlier Q. This response is driven by marketing material.

There are certainly some indicators that the poster is utilizing a machine learning solution (the vast majority of what is being called AI is actually ML) but the heavy formatting makes me suspect that the OP is using ML to generate responses that he then edits to fit his desired position and...- bfreedma
