Judging by what happens a million times slower in acoustics, I think 1 microsecond could be quite a bit short. Obviously it depends on the size of the chamber. If there is a paddle, it might be necessary to allow several turns of it to establish a cyclically stable field pattern. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
