I recently participated in blind listening tests comparing a $12,000
speaker
system from a well-known designer with excellent technical chops to a
European-designed, China-built studio monitor system that sells for
under
$400 the pair. They did sound a little different from each other. The
listening panel was about evenly split as to which they preferred based
on
dynamic range, tone quality and imaging. They all agreed that both
pairs
of
speakers sounded very, very good.


So, what were the speakers?


Behringer B2031A


That takes care of the studio monitors. What were the "big 'uns"? And what
were the musical selections, sources, and other equipment used? And what
type of rating system? And was it blind or double-blind?
