RE: What were your big leaps in audio

The physics of sound reproduction and architectural acoustics are pretty well known, though still evolving; but I think another major part is psychoacoustics, and that has a ways to go yet. Dr. Floyd Toole, Jr., made a lot of headway with that when he was the director of the Canadian Research group, and he has continued that work in his position with Harmon International (JBL, H-K, and Infinity); but I don't think everything in that area has been found. And, of course, there are still personal preferences and the effort one needs to put in to get the system matched up and tuned, and the room treated.
