Duly noted.
It started out well, however the continued attacks on me took their toll.
As noted, my initial premise and explanations were spot on. I explained in great detail and then was accused of being here just to put up wordcount.
The continued strawman building didn't help either.
As I said, this never happens at work, only here.

"This research was supported by grants from the National Institute of Deafness and Other Communication Disorders "
So it might be the case that those techniques are used in the little apparels with DSP for the deaf.
My father nowadays prefers to watch at movies in original language ( at the cinema) and with subtitles, because of the impossibility of having good intelligibility.
Nothing to do with music, I see.
My father used to say that to me either.
Now that he's retired and the company failed, I'm asking myself
...why, why,why....😛
🙄
I often have the subtitles on the TV, I find older films and programs far easier to understand. I don't agree it has nothing to do with music.
When I first learned humans localize using ear to ear delays down to below 5usec midband, I just couldn't believe it. The inverted bandwidth is just way too high. Yet it's there, the meatball just hangin in front of us.
Oh no, not another mismatched impedance cable settling time discussion.😀

Sounds like he was an important part of the company.
I am a small cog in a very big machine, playing only a support role to many amazing researchers. Every day there is a learning curve.

It's like pure tones...they have nothing to do with music.
Except the low bass notes with longer duration made by synths
But, again, there's no complexity in making long duration tones ( you can do it even with MIDI notation or similar, given the simplicity)
No, it was a company that sucked from European funds and he was just an external expert.
Odd you mention fear. In the previous rendition of this thread, I was constantly being hit with intimidation tactics by several. I never complained to the mods, as it's not my place.
As to "leading position", we are all equals here.
To me, the biggest takeaway here is, always question the tools you work with. If the tool is lying to you, and the results just don't seem to match expectation, never say "oh well".
Too many times, the tools are used as bludgeons against a person who reports some kind of audibility thing. When I posted this sideband stuff in support of a possible audibility thing, I was warned I was setting myself up as a target, and it was quite true.
KSTR was kind enough to model and look at exactly what I posted oh so long ago, and came to the exact same conclusion I had back then. He has the luxury of the tools at hand, something I do not.
This thread should be in that spirit of engagement all the time.
Agreed hugely, thanks.

Ok, I see what you mean now, I thought you meant because the paper is about speech. I don't agree with that either, "pure tones" particularly when they are mixed together are a very useful tool when it comes to analysis.
Non-Dutchies are not missing much in view of the total lack of methodology with which these listening tests were performed.
Maybe we should get back to something useful again.
What happened to the loudspeaker project with the pick up winding? I haven’t heard a word about that for weeks.

Good point. And did we reach a conclusion as to whether ESLs are FR sensitive to mains voltage fluctuation..?
I had to back burner that last november due to a family death. Life always seems to get in the way.
I have acquired a few tiny gauge enameled wires to see if they can fit the vc interstitials. I really hope I do not have to use the #49 awg, I can't even see that wire.
I also popped the front plate and cut it in half to eliminate shorted turn eddies.
Haven't tried to unglue the spider yet, not sure how to do it without destroying the spider, chemistry and horribly caustic chemicals may be in my future..🙁
At the moment, working on a toroidal coil winder, almost finished with it.
If anybody is interested in the build details, I could cobble up some pics and start a thread in the parts or equipment forum..

methyl ethyl ketone with a fume hood or outdoors near the nasty neighbors with a filter mask.
Sold at the Home Depot!
Will do. It'l be in the equipment forum I think.

Here is a video of a larger one. I like the control it maintains on wire tension, the shuttle and belt ones let the wire go slack.
My rings are about 3 inches diameter, the toroid is about 1.1 inch OD, .9 inch ID, and the wire is about 28 to 30 awg.
