Hi WayneWell it is nice that my explanation sounded familiar, this suggests that you may have read and remembered some of my other explanations to you on this subject..
This time I did take a bit more time to lay it out in plain English without depending on the technical references in the other post.
I figured maybe historical, technical references were what turned you off to the concept.
The expression “you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make them drink†is particularly fitting here it seems to me.
Until YOU are able to measure speakers for yourself and see what I’m talking about or find someone else who is a loudspeaker engineer to explain it to you, you will likely not be persuaded by my words.I know there are a few such engineers on this list though and would welcome input from them here if they are familiar with what I described in the last post.
So far as the E-mails, in several recent posts here on AA you alluded to the E-mails to the shop and the fuss it caused being “made upâ€.
I then posted the one you sent me where you falsly accuse me of bashing you and your products and accuse John H. and I being “in league†and out to get you somehow. Then you posted your e-mail to John H. where you do in fact suggest that perhaps you should speak to a lawyer about it..
It was nice you eventually fessed up to actually sending those e-mails.I have not seen the ones you sent to the shop yet but I do know that first Pat (office mgr) called saying “who is this Wayne guy and why is he so mad, threatening legal action†which was followed by my boss calling saying “stay off AA until there is a reading on this by Mikeâ€.
Our lawyers read was that you were not a legitimate threat.
I was then told I can go back on AA.
That is it in a nutshell, plain and simple.Like the other discussions where your posture is set in stone, I would be similarly surprised if sworn statements from Brad, Pat and the Lawyer outlining what I have said would effect your public persona either.
Never the less I will ask them all if they would consider posting here to that effect when I pick up your e-mails from the shop.The fact is, it was your e-mails to the shop that caused the problem, no amount of your whirling dervish will change that.
Fact two is horns and direct radiators have a different acoustic phase according to the reasons I explained.
The stuff I design for a living depends on knowing about / being able to measure acoustic phase. I forgot, you don’t think any of that stuff works either and don’t believe in taking your own measurements.
There are none as blind as those who choose not to see.
Cheers,Tom
