Sounds interesting. Never thought that way. Then the issue is getting speaker wire to both speakers which would cross the floor between the speakers?

So What Is Real?
I agree. Vodka lifts all veils. The more the better. 
So What Is Real?
I'd like to know when the "cable"  people last had a hearing test? Can you hear 20k HZ? Probably not. So what makes your ears so special?
