Hi-Fi speakers & monitors have the same purpose... To accurately reproduce sound. IIRC, Floyd Toole said the main difference is that...

As far as sound quality, the digital data is the same, and the analog output of MOST DACs (including whatever is built into your...

Probably insignificant but measurable.* Generally there are pretty BIG differences between two different speakers and any differences...

If they go loud enough without hearing URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipping_(audio)']clipping[/URL] (distortion) from your...

It's been too long since I've studied filters... And I was blocked from the videos, which I can't really watch right now anyway...

There are LOTs of trade-offs & compromises. Sometimes you lose sound quality to gain efficiency/ sensitivity. In these "modern times"...

I don't have any specific recommendations. Headphone "sound" is at least 95% frequency response. But we don't perceive headphones...

Why? You may have good reasons but it's an inferior-outdated format. I grew-up in the vinyl days and "snap", "crackle", and "pop"...

I found this: I'm fairly certain you can't tell the difference by listening or measuring. There are lots of variables and one won't...

The main things are the cabinet volume and how it's "tuned" with the passive radiator. If it's not a tried-and-tested design, look for...

You can't really say that because there is no "calibration" between the two... ;) Tape saturation is a magnetic phenomenon and...

They aren't effective soundproofing but they can help a little... Any sound that's absorbed (acoustic energy converted to heat energy)...

It should absorb a lot of high-frequencies but the fundamental notes aren't THAT high. And our ears are most-sensitive in these...

From what I read they were winning the loudness war at the time WITHOUT excessive distortion. (MOST of my 45's had poor sound and I...

The main problem is that most HDMI is encrypted, copy protected, and "encoded" as Dolby or some other format that most stand-alone DACs...
