Why IASCA tuning cannot listen audiophile music?

[Newkid]

ai yo bro, you are too profound for me, me newbie, and i wld really love to meet you for you to listen to my setup and feedback. when i said airy, it is like listening to cai chin's oldies and can listen to her breath when she is dragging low and slow. i tried to compare to home stereo as reference, and felt that home stereo (arcam delta 60+ mirage floor speakers) not as clear in the vocal section.

 

thanks.

because home stereo no processor for you to tune out/hide/enhance whatever notes you feel is lacking what you hear is the 'inherently designed' character of the equipment that you are using....

so is your home stereo not clear, cannot hear, or is your car system too clear? looks like u need other reference points liao, since it's obvious u don't trust your home audio. perhaps check out your friends' home systems and compare? if u doing that, invite me along hor, i also dun have home system, i wanna hear too :)

very simply guys,

 

IASCA/SASCA, AMMA, EMMA, any other mamas~~~ tuning is for competition,

 

Personally, when my car is sent for competition, it is tune according to the competition needs, also must consider which judges is judging so that you can tune more to what that particular judge's listening habits. One good example is that, during tuning for a competition, the driver's position seat may be push all the way back for better imaging, spectral balance etc etc which when driving will sounds like "sxxt".

 

After the competition is over, we will simply switch the tuning back to more "listenable" positions.

 

Just my two rupees worth.

if you read the link below, it may not be so concern to have an audiophile- recording.

namaskar....

 

if u judge from driver's seat unmoved, then u're judging the quality of music when driver is driving.

 

if u judge from passenger seat unmoved, then u're judging from passenger's point of view when car is being used.

 

if u judge from backseat, it's judging from the towkay's perspective as he rides the car.

 

if u judge from driver's seat with seat fully pushed back, especially with the seat reclined fully, the car is most likely stationary and the driver might be enjoying something else other than music.

 

so depends on how u use your car most of the time, u should ask the judge to judge in that position to best reflect how the car sounds in real life.

Chanced upon this interesting thread, who is Sarong? He does sound expert and correct. Does he tune for a living? If yes where? Would like to look for him.
