i am only debating on the fact that you actually get the feel of the actual recorded sound stage on the headphone and it has nothing to do with whether the sound quality of the recording or to proper studio mix with youtube mix.
YOU might get a feel YOU like but it is not that of the actual recording. It's the recording presented on headphones, and that's unique to headphones only. YouTube has nothing to do with anything, its just a storage/transmission medium..
i only started to listen to headphone like 1 year ago and i was listen to speaker all the time. all the recording sounded weird and yes there wasnt any sound stage or depth.
it is just sad stereo and even weider binaural ablums.
after a year trying to figure what is this sound stage thing in headphone, i finally concluded the only thing that is closed to a sound stage in a headphone is the sound stage of the recording.
If you don't like the stereo width and depth you get from speakers, work on your speakers and room. With proper speaker and room design it is entirely possible to produce a sense of width, depth, even talk yourself into height. A well designed stereo listening environment can actually image sounds outside of the speakers, behind them, in front of them, and everywhere between them. You may even think you hear something behind you! But just slapping a pair of generic speakers anywhere in a room won't do that. Excellent imaging can only be obtained from speakers when they are positioned properly, and all early reflections have been controlled. Then, however, magic can happen.
Binaural recordings do not work at all on speakers. They're not intended to.
it is not headstage and it has nothing to do with open or closed or iem.
Yeah, they all image inside your head.
imagining to me is the separation on individual source of sound in the recording.
You have created your own definition of imaging, outside of the generally accepted one.
i use a stadium recording as an example because the live stadium is a good example of confined space with properly positioned recorders.
sound stage of the recording varies depending on the type of headphone or iem. (different speakers produces different sound stage too)
The presentation changes very slightly with different headphones, a bit more so with speakers. When people comment on a different "soundstage" with different headphones it's mostly due to the radically different frequency response, and to an extent, the position of the transducer. But all headphones and IEMs place the bulk of the stereo spread between the ears, in the middle of the skull. The primary difference in speaker imaging has to do with dispersion and off axis response.
But you're not including the acoustic space the speakers are in. Any speaker can image much better if the acoustics are correct.
the sound stage should not change on the same headphone setup on different volumes what changes is virtual location of the headphone listener in the recording enviroment which causes the separation of the source of sound(imagining) to change.
Incorrect! Volume does not change localization!! That's a concept you have imagined for yourself. It's not universal for everyone, and specifically, volume is an extremely ineffective localization cue.
so the actual recorded sound stage should be constant and what changes is imagining.
I'm sorry, I can't even begin to discuss terms you have invented your own definitions for.
You have some very strong opinions! The are apparently based on extremely limited experience (1 year of headphone listening) and even less research. You're spouting opinion, including your own invented terminology, as if it's fact carved in stone. Your concepts are flawed by lack of experience and knowledge. You are arguing with people with many decades of experience in all parts of professional audio, some have spent a lifetime researching psychoacoustics, and aspects of hearing as well as sound reproduction and recording, acoustics and electronics.
I don't mind a discussion, or questions if someone is here to learn, but throwing around inaccurate statements like they are solid fact won't be tolerated much in Sound Science.
