[net.audio] another speaker in the room

If another speaker in the room ruins the sound, why don't the two
stereo channels interfere with each other?

Muddy low bass, eh?

Care to venture a physical explaination of how you were
driving your 4" speaker to several inches of cone excursion
to radiate such a disastrous signal?

I can see how SOME transducers have effects.  I can certainly see
how open or closed bookcases could have an effect.

Did your wonderful stereo store by any chance open/close
the bookcase and leave it in a different state while
they foisted this myth on you?  Bet they did!

Even Teddy Bears have no patience with Helmholtz resonators
on their bad days.

They do! They do! But its a glorious noise! ... I'm
surprised that another speaker in the next room doesn't
ruin it for the golden eared ones. Perhaps old age is setting in.
Why even I can hardly hear 150 khz anymore (or was it 15.0 khz?)...
((1.5 khz?)) ... well, whatever.

When doing these "passive speakers in the same room" test,
have they tried the following three way test?	
	a) open passive speakers
	b) shunted passive speakers (a short fat wire connecting the terminals)
	c) no passive speakers in the room
I would expect the right channel driven speaker and a shunted passive speaker
to present the same acoustic load to the left channel driven speaker
(at least if all 3 speakers are the same model), and vice versa.
