First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions
I hope that I have expressed this in a way for everyone of any level to understandAs an anecdotal personal experience, for awhile I was learning how to cook, so either I have to take some cooking classes, or being cheap as me, I would look up at...

Andy, you have opinions that you don't understand. I'm happy to stick to your original premise, but slamming others for giving accurate information does not work. I am still waiting for someone to tell me who can understand time-phase coherent...

Lead, follow or get out of the way :-) If there's a Ms. Kate Upton involved, I'll do all three lols.

Real life statistics: what is the percentage of speakers sold here on Audiogon that are digital?  It can't get more real than that.

A decent active crossover in knowledgeable hands will crush the performance of a top tier passive crossover.Haha so much crushing that nobody is bothering doing it except for some cheap eight dollar headphones.  Real life hello?Anyway, let's put...

You can literally be an armchair speaker designer with digital. I've always said that anybody can do it.Well anyone can smoke pot, but it does not mean anyone should do it.

High end expensive stuff from companies with sufficient depth to design and program signal processing electronics, i.e. like Harman companies, are doing high end in digital. That’s not I see in REAL life. Most of the most expensive speakers on th... 
Thiel Owners
I have to eventually ask Tom if all Thiel products are optimized for far field?  That is if I measure the frequency response at far field then repeat at near field, should it deviate a lot?  At far field, room interactions may hide things that nea...

it has not been mentioned, but remember there is acoustic phasing as you have been discussing It’s so obvious I didn’t to waste people time like you just did. Properly done active should always be better You have no idea. Talk is cheap lols. Wan...

With a digital active cross-over, time/phase alignment becomes relatively easy. OK, you have just changed the rule of the game. Sure with digital processing, you could, but I was clearly talking about pure analog xover filters.Digital processing ...

I was filling in the blanks. OK, I don't think I should be responsible for someone else's words.  Are you saying time-phase coherent is possible with higher order filter?  I suppose you could come up with your own definition of time-phase coher... 
First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions
I think your conclusion w.r.t. filters may be a wrong conclusion based around the type of filters you were using. Different filter types have considerably different step/impulse response, independent of order. I actually I never said that.  Or ...

There are mountains of evidence: genetic, fossil, comparative anatomy, homology, and much more. Carry on... You really took it seriously did you?  I look more like chimps than apes.   
Thiel Owners
Hi Tom,Actually I appreciate your timely feedback and I have said many times I have a lot of admiration for Thiel’s products. I’ve looked at a lot of Stereophile measurements it seems like there are speaker manufacturers that pursued "time phase c...
