Pro vs hifi drivers - pros and cons?

[cbdb]

it is only that I would put things like dynamics and earth moving bass above absolute SQ when choosing a design and drivers for movie sound, with music, SQ is at the top for me,

Thers lots of music with both dynamics and earth moving bass.

I believe "thermal compression" is highly overrated when you use good quality drivers and listen to acoustical music at realistic levels, if you like noise, oops I mean some of the other types of music , then sure worry as much as you want about it.

"good quality drivers" like in "pro drivers"? What is a realistic level for a symphony orchestra?

1. Yes, movies have music in them, can you remember what music played after the movie? I certainly can't, I can only concentrate on one thing at a time, sometimes.

2. My mother isn't an actress.

3. Reproducing a close lightning strike is one of the reasons why I believe good movie speakers may be different than good music speakers.

4. Vehicle engines..., perhaps until you hear a Porsche that sounds like a 4 cylinder Ford chasing down a dirt road with screaming tyres.

Watch the movie again, and listen to the music.(how many times have you heard your reference music?

So you use your mothers guitar for reference music?

Theres bad sound fx out there just like bad music, whats your point.

What is a realistic level for a symphony orchestra?

With a large pipe organ and a 40 piece choir, or a cannon going off.

Can the felt monster handle that?

Do you say that prodrivers are the only good quality drivers?

I like to listen to music at levels similar to what I would expect to hear from the real instrument, with some exceptions of course. For a symphony orchestra, just loud enough to be comfortable to listen to.

1. I don't like to watch movies over and over.
2.
3. I was just joking about some bad movies I've came across.

So you choose to cut out the smilie.

My music taste changed quite a lot since I was younger and also as my system got better, nowadays I prefer music like jazz and certain vocals. Getting old perhaps.

By "noise" I was just referring (as a joke) to synthesizers and deliberate distortion on bass guitars. I still listen to that sometimes but don't enjoy it as much as in the past. I'm not "feeling superior" about anything, do you feel that way because I don't agree with everything you say? If I'm not allowed to have a view of my own (which some are trying their best to distort to suit their argument), just say so and I will never respond to any of your posts again.
