Of course it is but how about THREE?
Remember that the most obvious home-playback application of Michael
Gerson's mathematical work is *not* Ambisonics but TRIFIELD.
As I recall, it was the addition of a center speaker that Gerzon himself
thought would become the most widely adopted of his inventions -- or did I
read the biography wrong?
Here, the licensing seems to have gotten in the way. Did anyone other
then Meridian ever implement Trifield for consumers? Was it ever (or is it
now) available as a *cheap* license, so that it can be put in Japanese or
Korean recievers?
Yes, we know how you feel about "sound-stage" reproduction, but given that
the US hi-fi market has largely pursued this goal, did anyone ever
seriously try to tackle the center speaker issue for music?
