RE: Diffraction and front baffle and cabinet design

Posted by jimdgoulding@yahoo.com on April 17, 2012 at 02:20:46:
Isn't it true thst diffraction effects contribute to time and phase error as well as frequency response anomaly? Correcting the frequency response is one thing, but time and phase error is another. Please tell how this aspect can be dealt with without correction. Offsetting tweeters will make it less of an offense, but what about speakers whose drivers are stacked in a straight line with narrow cabinets as are fashionable these days?
