Favorite speaker demo videos on YouTube?

[Bill F.]

I spend a lot of time working on my computer these days, and I have recently enjoyed listening to speaker-demo videos in the background. I would love to hear your recommendations for more!

The best I've found so far are from Kenrick Sound. They have hundreds of lovely classic JBL restomod speakers, and they seem to put some effort into getting high-quality audio and video capture of their demos.

Where can I find more of these kinds of videos to binge? Speaker type and music genre isn't important to me (though big exotics are fun), only the quality of the capture.

TIA,

Bill

If you want some serious speaker pron listening try this https://www.stereophile.com/content/binaural-video-report-sound-ps-audios-irs-vs

I think the IRS V need a bigger room personally 😀

YouTube speaker demo videos are little to no use getting to the truth about their sonics as the output you hear has to be convolved with so much other stuff it is impossible to tease out what part is the loudspeaker and all the really important small stuff gets lost.

And they usually do not do as good a job as static pictures showing what they look like,

Haven't come across anything better. Speaker demo's range from completely useless (most) to quite good (Kendrick). The worst are the one's where someone is just wandering around with a smart phone.

Planet10: No argument from me.

But I'm not seeking ultimate sonic truth in YouTube vids, just some fun. 🙂

Fun is good.
