Height and weight. 70% of the indisputable goodness comes from the weight and 30% from the height. To measure a speaker's goodness take the weight in pounds and multiply it by 0.7 and add the height in inches multiplied by 0.3. If speaker A has a higher number than speaker B, it's better.
How do you prove that one speaker is better than another?
Does anybody know how it can be proven that one speaker is better than another? It is easy to show that one goes higher or lower in frequency or louder but what about the overall sound quality?
For example lets take a relatively cheap bookshelf speaker that costs $500. Now lets take a very expensive bookshelf speaker such as the KEF ref one or Wilson duettes, or TAD ME1.
How can it be shown that these expensive speakers are better than the cheap speaker?
I understand that you can just listen to it and claim its better but that is obviously not proof thats just an opinion.
