If you have enough listening time in, and know what to listen for, you can easily hear crossover induced phase distortions, for example. I believe many reviewers (and audiophiles) mistakingly blame cables or electronics for certian things they hear when in reality it's phase distortion in the crossover many times. I have been able to hear the crossover in every high order speaker I have listened to in the last 3 years. People plop down hard earned cash based upon glowing reviews. I wonder how many reviewers know how to distinguish phase distortion from an edgy amplifer or strident, forward sounding cables?
