In Reply to: "...I think a manufacturer should offer him a job" posted by bjh on May 11, 2006 at 08:35:36:
with my statements -- regardless of doom and gloom or personality arguements or any other issue - the fact is that a room of scientifically minded people who have an interest in the hobby should want to listen and evaluate honest efforts to improving their products. Soundmind also clearly has a great knowledge and appreciation and maybe even love of classical music.If I ran a speaker or other audio compnay, I would rather hire someone who thinks what they offer my company will greatly improve what it is that I have made -- isn't that the point of hiring an engineer in charge of research development in the first place?
The problem is that I suspect the only companies with the sheer money to be able to commit to the undertaking have absolutely no interest whatsoever in creating "better sound" but rather they are far more interested in advertising "tweeter on top technology" or Full stereo sound in a radio with lots of tv advertising spots.
Smaller companies and people genuinely interested in both classical music and reproducing it A) can't afford to hire Soundmind (who I get the impression is either semi or fully retired)(though it is his hobby so if it was the right situation he may give a cut rate) or B) even if they could get Soundmind and his ideas on board may not have the finances to implement the desired results.
The issue is that invention is created from a desire or need for solutions. The desire of most all audio companies is to make money to make themselves billionaires and could care less if customers were even remotely happy. None of them would take on Soundmind's ideas because unless it brings huge financial returns they don't care. The average buyer does not care about Classical music -- or Jazz and reproducing Madonna and Aerosmith and amplified music (well that can be reproduced BETTER at home now that it can at the concert).
And if I can say this about Soundmind who I've spent dozens of spiralling threads arguing with him over practically everything - (and I'm not even capitalist minded) then surely someone who isrunning a company making speakers looking for an edge over the rest can look past all that irrelevent yammerring and see what is a good idea. Umm But he has to find a way to do it with SETS and HE speakers :-)
