[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 123411, member: 126"] Re: Listening Get Together That statement does not even sound internally consistent with itself. If "de-correlated" means scrambled, it seems unlikely that this would increase clarity, but perhaps the weasel word is "perceived". Human perception is all about discarding lots of redundant information and extrapolating an interpretation or view of the sound space from a few cues isolated from the sound field. Scrambling the temporal content, before it gets scrambled by room boundaries or other reflective surfaces could make them seem to disappear. Still not sure how this would increase clarity. If one cue is suppressed the brain will default to use other cues. As I have suggested before, hifi playback is already an imperfect system based on perceptual trickery. If there is any there there, this could probably be done more easily with a digital plug-in. But I am not convinced there is any there there. You generally don't use snake oil salesmanship to sell the real deal, while that alone does not prove it is BS, it does appear to be walking and quacking like a duck. JR [/QUOTE]
