ABSTRACT

From the previous chapter it should now be apparent that we are not dealing with perfection when we talk about music reproduction via loudspeakers. The late Richard Heyser (inventor of the Time Delay Spectrometry measurement system, and one of the audio giants of the 20th century) said that ‘In order to fully enjoy the intended illusion of a recording, it is necessary to willingly suspend one’s belief in reality. All recording and reproduction via two loudspeakers is illusory’.
