Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

RE: Stereo vs. multichannel: what are your thoughts on this statement (inside).

"I'm sure this would not work for my preferences and goals. One can take a pretty distorted speaker and add some digital EQ and get a pretty flat response from one meter in an anechoic chamber while having something that would sound pretty lousy in practical use."

I'm not sure you can get a pretty flat response from a pretty distorted speaker, in fact I suspect you can't, but in any case, that low distortion is a goal, along with a relatively uncolored response, is a given. I'm not going for a noisy uncolored speaker (I think that might be an oxymoron), I'm going for the cleanest, least-colored speaker possible. And mind you, I understand that this is a very lofty goal, but usually, the closer you get, the better I like the results. YMMV.
