the only way deaf people can hear

Yeah, every time I watch or listen to something with that range of bass I get a renewed sense of happiness that I built my surround sound system

And I've got the "cheap" speakers

Modern songs seem to be very bass heavy and loud

Pop mostly

LOL well to be fair cheap speakers now are better than most of the consumer stuffs thats been out for so many years

That's true

really the amp is where its at

You know what I hate

My "cheap" speakers are on a level playing field with my dad's 40-year-old SpeakerLabs speaker cabinets

People who moan about modern music being bad

in terms of having the biggest effect on the sound

And not actually looking beyond the Billboard charts

LOL i mean i listen to metal and some of the modern shit is fuckign great

the mainstream sure is terrible tho

Like, even pop and rock

And mainstream

There's amazing music

Yeah, the people who complain about modern music being bad don't look outside the mainstream much

generally speaking its bleh

I think they're specifically only looking at the charts *to* be outraged

Yes

Exactly

the music industry is so oversaturated to begin with

Like, you have people like Kanye West, Dart punk, The weeknd

everything just becomes a niche in a niche in a niche

But nah DJ Khalid is there so fuck it everything new is bad

i can appreciate a good singer

and people that use real instruments

Hell, harry styles makes amazing music now

like either alone or mixed with electronic stuff

I'll be honest now..no memeing

I've not listened to any charts / radio or anything western in years

and tbh ive desensitised myself to qualifying music outisde of like practical stuff

I highly recommend the weeknd

He's like Marvin Gaye

But edgy

like the key rule as an audio engineer is if what you want to hear, you can hear clearly

clarity is key

guess I got sick of it or something.. specially when radios played the same shit over and over and you are stuck with hours of nothing but radio to listen to

if you have a pop tune where u cant hear or understand the lead vocals properly that is shitty
