Virtual SMAART training: Explanation Slide 3

Without knowing the nature of the electrical filters, one cannot say conclusively what fraction of the apparent delay is from the physical driver offset, and what fraction is from the filters' group delay effects. If you know the electrical XO filter topology, you can figure out what fraction of the delay is from the electrical filter. The remaining will be a physical offset, and of course that will change based on the measurement axis with respect to the loudspeaker drivers.


For the sake of the thread, I remain intentionally ignorant of any details of the electrical XO filters in this powered loudspeaker. This will limit what can be said, but it is reflective of what can be determined in situ.


More later on in the week...
