Help My Nautilus B&W 804's 'pop' at loud volumes.
Clipping or speaker damage...all speakers get very hot inside the voice coil and then sound dull - you may want to look at pro speakers if you want to retain dynamics at high SPL.

Help me identify music.

I agree with Al. This shows how good we are at hearing sounds and nothing to do with temporal resolution.The wavelength at 7KHz is 5cm. Therefore in order to get the direct sound completely out of phase at the listener one need only move one speak...

Byron,There is no solid evidence for this - so it is indeed controversial. If a mere few microseconds were important then speaker and listener position would be dependent down to a millimeter or less than a tenth of an inch. It is generally accept...
