I suppose the idea behind time corrected speakers is that each frequency arrives at the listener's ear at about the same time. I suppose we could move the subwoofer(s) into the next room. Inconvenient and peculiar.


2x6, the speed of sound is independent of its frequency. In still air, like that found indoors, the only thing that can affect it is the ambient temperature and humidity. Some crossover designs can alter the phase of sound differently depending on the frequency, so time correction is important in that aspect. Outside of the speaker's cabinet, however, the only thing that needs to be done is to keep the drivers as close to equidistant from the listener's ear as is reasonable.

The lesson here is that those who live in warmer climates get the news before those who live in colder climates. I wonder though if the news is more distorted in warmer climates due to greater Brownian motion.

Thank you PMB. I can now relax. I thought my next speakers would need the tweeters placed 2/3" from the sweet spot and the 20Hz subwoofer all of 54 feet away in order to get "time coherence."

But, what took you so long?

Mojo, I have to try to collect all my free wandering neurons getting knocked around before I can answer, stand by ....
