They measure phase shift over the whole frequency spectrum? And how about the phase shift caused by the distance between the speaker and your ears? And in a multi-element speaker, the "correct" phase exists only at one point in the room. > I have speakers that do preserve waveform timing and phase and I can > discern this. I assume you have done double-blind ABX tests to verify that. "To try to judge the real from the false will always be hard.
