while you're right in that the measurements do differ slightly resulting in what is likely an audible difference, your multiple posts seem pretty dead set on trying to convince amir and everyone else that what he heard was wrong whether it be due to his sets, pads, or his hearing or bias.For the last 6+ pages you have taken sole target at my comments and ignored everyone else. Your assessment was challenged and proven wrong, objectively, with multiple measurements and references without any address from you. You are now cherry-picking the guy trying to keep your premature conclusions accountable.
I hope you don't fancy yourself a purveyor of the scientific method, because your grasp of the concept of peer review is not that great.
The technical measurements are useful, but as I mentioned before the personal impressions are lackluster and prone to bias. Everyone would do best to ignore the latter.
The value of this site is that it allows individuals like Sean Olive, Solderdude, Crinacle etc. to congregate.
we weren't at his set and didn't hear what he heard.
maybe he did make a mistake as you claim. he's after-all human, with fallible memories.
maybe he really heard 2 identical sets as he claims. the measurements do point to a slight enough difference that externalities (like pads) could have resulted in 2 nearly-identical experiences.
i've auditioned both and can see either outcome being a distinct possibility.
i doubt any reviewer is going to change the memory of their experience based on what we're saying. let's just take his inputs for what it is, a person describing his experience, with the full trappings and constraints that all reviews come with.
mind you, i've raised objections to his reviews before on the burchardt s400 where he poo-pooed it despite good objective measurements. while he did make mention of it in the review after, he stood by his own subjective review, which is absolutely fair
