Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: "It makes some sounds or notes suddenly appear 'too loud' so engineers...

I agree that fidelity to the signal is the goal. And that includes ultimately to include phase distortion. But at the current state of the art linear phase speakers are difficult to do and there is a cost in other fidelity aspects. So given that the audibility of poor phase response seems to be way below the audibility of the more recognized distortions I would opt for solving those problems first. Hopefully in the not too distant future we'll be able to do better.
