But isn't it really all of the above. it's by means of all the other aspects that you end up with the equalizer.
There are a lot of hings that happen when you put anything in the path of a sound wave.
If you are trying to make music out of it then yes, focus on the way it sorts out the input, but you kind of have to understand the mechanics of sound versus barrier before you can make any 'Real-ly' useful changes.
hmm. maybe that gedes guy was onto something. Obviously if we are aiming for something higher in playback than what is usual you need to understand it scientifically; and then crucially, interpret it usefully. perhaps that's what let him down (assuming that his system doesn't sound great) his lack of making use to find any really interesting results, just proveable improvements.
