Tue, 03 Nov 2009 03:03:11 -0500 http://www.ecoustics.com/secrets/home-theater-speakers/696 Do you fault a Mini Cooper for being a Mini and not a Honda Odyssey or a Porsche 911?

Many audiophiles just cant stomach a processor messing with the signal. Never mind their speakers might have terrible frequency and phase response, at least when compared to their other electronics! On top of that, interaction with the room causes frequency response errors of well over 10 dB in all but the most acoustically perfect rooms. Still think your signal is pure?
