I have to do some traveling for the next few months and I like to watch videos on the airplane. I can download youtube videos to my ipad.

Does anyone have suggestions for videos that might be of interest to audio an audio enthusiast?

I have a few to start

1) John Atkins (Stereophile magazine) explains speaker measurements

2) computer audio - from PC to your system

3) High end audio on a budget

Western Electric - cool speakers, and there's at least one AKer in this video(Howdy Joe!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAhaKcnfBig

Danley Sound Labs - cutting edge in loudspeaker innovation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG9l4oTjN5Y

Anything on room acoustics and set up. Look at videos from GIK acoustics, Ethan Winer/Real Traps and Dennis Foley/Acoustic Fields. If you haven't ever looked into room acoustics this is a must. Of course, if you know you can't or are vehemently opposed to treating your room then your time would probably be better spent looking at audio eye candy.

There's the fantastic and fun Greek Audiophile mini documentary:

And maybe some day they'll restore the sound for the 2 1/2 hour roundtable panel discussion:
