This statement of yours: " a million different "tweaks", etc, etc, etc. All needed by audiophiles, to attempt to make their sh**ty stereos sound decent " would be absolutely hilarious if it wasn't so truly sad that you fail to realise or simply choose to ignore ---{ for some strange reason only you can comprehend }--- that your speakers require the usage of the three specific tweaks of:
1) Built-in equalization.
2) A 5kHz notch filter circuit.
3) Baffle-Step-Correction
In order to achieve their performance! Is that your attempt to make your sh**ty stereos sound decent? Hmmmmmm???
Please regale us all with your scientific explanation of how and why any of the tweaks employed in your speakers ---{ and yes, using equalizing, notch filters and baffle step correction circuits are indeed tweaks in and of themselves }--- is any different than a tweak that attempts to remove the very real problem of Interaural Crosstalk! Fact is many people listen near field for the very purpose of attempting to minimize the effects of interaural crosstalk.
So in the Audio World according to AJinFLA using using an equalization circuit isn't a tweak, using a notch-filter circuit isn't a tweak and using a baffle-step-correct circuit isn't a tweak but using an interaural crosstalk elimination circuit is a tweak and it's one that's used by audiophiles, to attempt to make their sh**ty stereos sound decent? GMAB! AJinFLA you are quite literally the embodiment of audio hypocrisy!
