QuadToddYeah, I see what you mean. The first transient would definitely have a direction. A kickdrum definitely has a directional launch of energy. I'll try listening with cable polarity swithed.
All bipolar speakers by definition launch the wave front and back, opposite polarity. The back wave reflects off the front wall and returns with, but slightly off the front wave. I know the space from the front wall is important, but the whole idea seems problematic to me. Now I'm trying to understand absolute polarity and reverse polarity and it is confusing me.
Absolute polarity is dicussed elsewhere in this thread.
Maybe I should stop thinking about it and just enjoy the music. It's a truly amazing thing, audio and the human ear. I've never heard Quads, only Magnepans and Martin Logans. I love the way bipolars sound.
