RE: Summary article on importance of transients over pitch

Bohdan has been writing on the topic for years now. It's an excellent tutorial on the subject and an outshoot from his work on SoundEasy.

However, unfortunately, you can't achieve "linear-phase" operation with large transducered speakers like Magnepan's. Comb filtering and the large transducer surfaces create a complicated lobing pattern that can't be corrected (to linear phase) with crossover techniques and/or other electronic means.

You're going to have to switch to a speaker that's a much smaller acoustic source. :)

Cheers,

Dave.
