My guess is what they've built is a filter that spatialises stereo by using a comb filter or HRT transforms then does some reverb and other filtering to make it sound impressive. It ends up being very tiring to listen to and a novelty to be played back through crappo PC speakers. I have used similar systems before on mobile phones and for VR that claim to enhance movies, music and games, but after the initial impression of a wider sound stage, you realise that it's the same music but sounding like it's in a big bucket. I do like the graph though. I'd love to see how it gets presented at shows or in a sales pitch. "Listeners reported a 50% increase in 'experience' compared to ordinary stereo, and 10% recorded a full Jimi Hendrix". I may do my own for my music library, perhaps using a scale from mildly entertained, through moderately enchanted to extremely captivated. Units of percentage satisfaction should suffice. -- CardinalFang You're only young once, but you can be immature forever... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CardinalFang's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=962 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28260 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
