OK, I'll take the bait one last time and try to have a reasonable discussion with you. If the motion of the speaker cones tracks the waveforms I generated, the audible difference must be due to some effect in the sound wave itself (and its interaction with your ear). This was my possibility 3. Tom pointed out in that post that if you are behind the speaker, the cone motion is indeed polarity reversed in precisely the sense we are talking about. Unfortunately for ordinary speakers it's also true that there are other effects (including a changed frequency response) which matter quite a bit. Nonetheless, it may still be possible to hear if the changes between the two polarities have the same character they do from the front, or if they are swapped. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23759 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
