I think I would off myself.
What if there were no more new speaker models?
So you have your speakers and you're happy and satisfied. and you have no desire for a change.
How would you feel if they never produced another new speaker model? Do you live for the day when you can buy a better speaker?
if they stopped introducing newer models, would they still continue to produce existing speaker models or would all the speaker companies go out of business? They must continue to advance what they do otherwise they have no future, sort of like the need for technology advancements. Curiously, toasters are still basically the same as they were 50 years ago except now with fancy displays. But they are still producing toasters.
Maybe this bodes well for the future of the speaker business.
Are they able to continue to produce speakers that somehow are better than the previous speakers? Will this ever stop? Is anyone excited about new speakers that have been created within the past couple years? What is it that they continue to do to justify continuation of producing newer speaker models that somehow are better?
Why is there demand for newer speaker models? What is it that's being done that makes the speakers better than they were last year? Does anyone know? are the new hi-fi shows each year getting more and more boring to go to? Or more exciting to go to?

Maybe the better question is do we really need to see improvements in amplifiers? Which area would you rather see more improvement, amplifiers or speakers? Maybe that’s the better question. Maybe amplifiers because those are enormously more complicated than speakers. Solid state improvements to make better quality amplifiers at a much lower cost since you gotta pay so much more to get something that’s more in line with what tube amplifiers are all about. I don’t want odd harmonics, I want even harmonics, which is why apparently tube amps are inherently better than solid state. |
This is a hobby which is typically based on wants not need. So no, we don’t need anything. And like all hobbies one uses a portion of their disposable income which varies with each individual. What purpose would it serve to stop innovation? I do not see any benefit. Maybe what the OP is really asking, is what’s currently available enough to satisfy? Yes for some, but nobody can answer for everyone. |
