Absolute Sound

Absolute Sound refers to the true, unaltered sound produced by a recording or playback system, representing the original performance without any coloration, distortion, or enhancement added by equipment. It’s the pure, objective measurement of sound’s amplitude across frequencies, allowing audiophiles and engineers to evaluate audio quality based on standards like frequency response and distortion levels. In essence, absolute sound is the ideal reference point—an accurate depiction of the original sound source—used to assess and compare high-fidelity audio systems for their accuracy and transparency.
