Axpona 2015 - Best...and not so best of....

Mike said:
Peter - that's very interesting. I would suspect the headphone crowd helps those demographic numbers. Also, in one of the rooms, I was pleasantly surprised to have sat beside two lovely ladies who were hard core audiophiles. They told me they were both single professionals and loved music. We discussed their gear (all top drawer stuff) and what their plans were for system improvements. They were very impressed with the Resolution Acoustics room and both were seeking better ways to treat their rooms.

Interestingly, we don't do headphones, perhaps 10 out of 1500 videos has headphone oriented themes (Canjam- walk through, stuff like that).

I misunderstood. I thought we were looking at Axpona attendee demographics. My apologies.

Anyway, the stats do look very promising. Good to see some younger folks taking an interest.

Would be very curious as to how you collect the data, since I've watch a lot of your videos, but don't recall entering my personal data. Perhaps this is from YouTube when people log in through their YouTube accounts?

You know Mike you raised a good question. How does Peter get those demographic numbers. I just watched a couple AVShow Axpona 2015 youtube videos, and I didn't log in nor did I subscribe.
 
The numbers are pure Youtube viewer demographics for that one channel.

I don't subscribe to any Youtube channels either. I suspect our data miners at Google/Youtube triangulate each view based on cookies and sites last visited.

Trust me, "they" know everything about us. That one form that we filled in our age five years ago... that's part of our IP address data.

You're right Peter. If anyone was to dig into a Google Adword campaign and the tools they have available, it's SPOOKY!

Thanks Peter! The three of you in the Axpona report are the best three you've ever had IMO. Great great job! :audiophile:

"Resolution Acoustics performed an interesting experiment: they commandeered two identical rooms, one of which was untreated, and the other treated with about $30,000 of their acoustic treatments. Each room was outfitted with the same Pass Labs XA100.5 monoblocks ($16,500/pair) and Sonus Faber Stradavari Homage loudspeakers. Centrally located were a Pass Labs XP-30 preamplifier ($16,500) and Mac Mini feeding a Meitner MA-1 DAC ($7000) (reviewed here) routing the same music to both rooms simultaneously. It should come as no surprise that the treated room sounded legions better – more focused with a rock-solid soundstage, with instruments precisely located, full bass without overhang, an unmuddied midrange, and crystal clear treble. Very enlightening."

Just got the time to listen to this. Well done overall presentations gentlemen. Thanks.

That said, Peter, I love you dude, but the HFT's again....really? I must be a dumbo-head but I just can not (even a little bit) believe this is anything but psychological. Frankly, when I hear you say such things it just makes me question all of your otherwise very thoughtful insights. Someone please give me any remotely plausible explanation as to how these can impact SQ. I am always happy to learn and I will must humbly apologize to our friend Peter if I am missing something.
 
Funny,

On my desk top speakers I was impressed, Especially because it's a youtube video, I heard it as Peter called it , the sound of the cello was fantastic, his comments sealed the deal, they are serious speakers, would love to hear them .......

funny, i found this video a bit unnatural sounding. there is hardly any instrument decay. admittedly, its a youtube video so might be hard to judge that component.

Your youtube PC needs some HFT's. That will fix it up fine. :happy:
