"Most of the sound that reaches your ears is reflected sound. While your ears derive spatial cues primarily from the direct sound, the reflected sound plays a very significant role in perceived timbre."How true. I often see comments along the line of "I don't care if the speaker beams, as long as it sounds OK at my listening position it doesn't matter". Duke's post shows what's wrong with that assessment.
