I was watching this interview with Jonathan Weiss of Oswalds Mill Audio. In the video, he makes several (imo)controversial statements(ex: horns should be straight, not curved), but the most interesting of those is that speakers should be designed with a lowercase n - or inverse v - curve. He also says the tradition Toole view that speakers should be neutral is incorrect, as it conflicts with the way humans hear. I tend to mostly ignore statements like this as marketing, but what made this statement more compelling - at least to me - was that he actually cited a source, "Elements of acoustical engineering" - Harry Olson. I haven't read that book, but I'm wondering if anyone here has. If you have, is what he's saying a correct interpretation of Olson? and if so, does it have merit?
