They work at a different frequency ranges, but other than that are just as rubbish as ours.
They probably appear to work better, because those animals make better use of their perceptions. That is, because they set their entire brains to the task of listening instead of wondering how to make what they hear more pleasing.
The problem is, I have experienced a system going at 150mph, but the vast majority only do 80 - once you've been there you can't pretend it didn't happen, just to please some "experts". That's the point of mentioning the system in the link - yes, it took a lot of money, but they got it over the hurdle of achieving convincing sound, demonstrating, yet again, what's possible - a 150mph system. Note the key ingredients: playing grubby ol' CDs, happy to play any music that a visitor brought along, esoteric or whatever - it ... just ... did ... the ... job ...
Edit: If I only achieved satisfying sound once, and never again, I could be convinced that I'm "Predictably Irrational" - however, I've been able to recreate the essence of the experience at will, whenever I've been motivated enough to push things. Therefore, what anyone else thinks about it is pretty irrelevant, really ...

The steady output oth is only achieved on axis. Drivers start beaming with rising frequency. So, with rising f, on axis output might not change, but total output will decrease. This is not related to the driver adding resonances to the input signal.
The rising impedance of a driver is caused by inductance and can be remedied by fighting flux modulation in the pole piece through a shortening ring. Better drivers typically employ this trick.

Are we talking live Orchestra, live rock band, what hall are they playing in, how good is the PA, do I have man flu that day etc.
Songs in the 165-180 BPM range....I need more. | dailymile
Happy hard core will make you think your system is whizzing along.

My own, at various times, when I've put enough effort into optimising the environment - not a 100% stable situation, which is a reflection of the fact that there are so many factors that have to be "just right", it's been a long learning process to try and get on top of all of these, to be able to guarantee success every time.

All of the above ... when it happens full strength, for the first time, you certainly know about it; and from then on you learn to recognise the signs that the system is getting close to the quality necessary, various markers in what you hear tell you where you're at ...
Plenty, here is an alphanumeric list:
a**e- 1
Black- none, we aren't advanced enough for physics at this level.
coal- nearly every house
fox- a local village
hell- see below
Key- what we can use to unlock our understanding of real physics
loop- what we are always trying to find
Pot- 1,000,000,000+
S**t- Pretty much describes Blackburn
