[QUOTE="Peter Etheredge, post: 81957, member: 58"] Re: Listening Get Together It occurred to me earlier where else I had heard of indirectly delivering the HF to the audience: [url=http://soundsphere.com/speakers/Q-8.htm]Soundsphere // Model Q-8 Omnidirectional Loudspeaker, Offering High Sensitivity & Power Handling Capabilities[/url] They've been doing that for YEARS and yet after all this time you rarely see them used; and with good reason! They haven't taken off because the intelligibility just isn't there. It's just the physics of relying on a reflected HF signal. Now I don't know how yours sound and if you have any in my area I'd be willing to listen but in the mean time your videos do concern me. Sure it's a poor quality recording but there does seem to be a lot of phasing and I notice a real drop off in the HF as you walk to the sides, right as one would expect. I've got tons of videos recorded on my iPhones over the years of systems that I know sounded good (and used conventional and trusted designs) and I've never heard that kind of phasing in any of them.
