What is the perfect room?


In this post I will share information about what my theory predicts is the perfect room once you have perfect speakers. 

My theory predicts that a perfect room would be an anechoic chamber which absorbs 100% of every single frequency from 20hz to 20khz. The reason this is not usually recommended is because its impractical rather than because it sounds bad. The truth is few people have tried it as theres no space to put a pair of speakers and a chair in most of these chambers as they are used to do measurements rather than listen. Most speaker companies dont even have an anechoic chamber. 
Therefore it is mostly sour grapes when you hear claims that it wouldn't sound good. 

All the reverb on a recording is already there on the cd. There is no need for further reverb from the room unless you enjoy inaccurate reproduction of music. Audiophiles often complain about bright sound. This is due to the room reflections. 

The most direct cleanest way for the signal to get from the speakers to your ears is in an anechoic chamber. No more standing waves, boomy bass and zero added reflections. Just pure heavenly music. 

If the goal of a hifi is to reproduce the signal with nothing added or subtracted, (which it should be) then it doesn't get any better than this folks. This is endgame level quality. 

80% of what you hear is room reflections. That means you are only hearing 20% of the direct signal. That means if you buy a 10k pair of speakers, you are only getting 2k worth of sound out of 'em.

If more reverb is desired, tough. If it's not on the recording, stop complaining. 

I believe my invention will allow people to hear their speakers and recordings for the first time without the 80% distortion that normally comes along with what we hear. If you want 100% signal, 0% reflections this is the answer. The problem with a reverberant room is that every recording sounds reverberant which is obviously not what you want. 

My novel anechoic room technology is the key.

"I believe my invention.....". ".....which is an indication that my invention is not wrong." "My novel anechoic room technology is the key." 

So now he's claiming to have invented the anechoic chamber! By the way, I have read reports of what sound is like inside a chamber, and it is not what dipsh*t thinks it is.


"Most speaker companies don't even have an anechoic chamber. Therefore it is mostly sour grapes when you hear claims that it wouldn't sound good."

This coming from a guy who himself has never been in a chamber.


"my infinite baffle in wall speaker technology....."

My, my, my. Wow, just wow.
