I once rode a mountain bike out into the middle of a huge salt flat in Nevada, where there was no wind, birds, cars... the noise of my shirt collar rubbing against the hairs on the back of my neck was deafening. But I'm not sure you got the point of my post - I was suggesting that in such an environment, listening to two speakers playing a stereo recording made in a normal room might not sound bad, because the recording would have captured both the direct and reflected sound in the room where it was made. Going further, that might even be ideal, at least if your goal was to hear something as close as possible to the what a listener at the original performance heard. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34415 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
