And can somebody tell me how one can figure out where the membranes located and where is the membrane’s acoustic center would be? The way Distortion's proposed way helps to EQ the proximity from the listening spot to the throats, but THAT proximity is not really relevant distance and it has absolutely nothing to do with arrival time. With the same success we can measure the distance from listening spot to the horn’s mouths or from the listening spot to the next liquor store…

PS: Adrian, I got your message about my attitude but my attitude was not against what Distortion proposes (though I feel it is incorrect) but rather it was the anti-angeloitacare attitude. That idiot kept sending me unsolicited messages after message with assurances that “he might improve quite a bit from where I have now”. I still feel that Distortion is the Angeloitacare cretin, the fact that he posts from sever that many ISP recognize as spamming IP and block does not help as well. Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
