It is so hard -- so hard -- for an actual scientist to read this. Regarding the quotation above: of course, it is a good, if in some points debatable, take on the history of science. However, some things are simply true: the Moon goes around the Earth, the Earth goes around the Sun, 2+2=four, etc. This includes other minor facts, including the fact that humans have a hard time discerning db differences in degrees smaller than 1/3 octave -- which is why, no coincidence, graphic EQs use 1/3 octave bands. Naturally, you can get more precise with parametric systems, and that is a good thing, but I digress. The real point is that the basic mechanics of how a speaker produces sound are well known and understand -- thinking that quantum-level interactions are significant part of it is just nonsense or pseudo-new-age-whatever. As a poster in another thread pointed out, perhaps you might be interested in this product:
