Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Advice about QS8

Timbre matching between the front speakers will make sense. But when you get from the back to the front, the shape of your ears effect that way that we hear anyway, so I can't say in real life that someone talking behind me ever sounded the same as someone talking infront of me.

So if in reality the timbre changes as the object you are listening to moves, then why would you care if it's not same in the movie? Your hearing can easily compensate for the pitch change, but it can't for radiant/directionality.

I have always been very disappointed by my surround speakers and how it never envelops you. I am looking forward to trying out my new QS8 as I have heard similar style speakers that blew my mind on how good they were (but could not afford). These I can and these might even be better.
