No, it is not "totally" meaningless. yes it is flavored with sighted
bias. But honestly so are your personal perceptions of your own
stereo. Does that make your perceptions meaningless? You have talked
about those perceptions at length and have come up with some very
unconventional beliefs on stereo playback based on those perceptions.

Not totally unconventional. There are a few others who have observed the
same, such as Linkwitz, Moulton, Davis, maybe include Toole if you consider
his reports on the prefernce for a wide, smooth response to indicate
something about radiation pattern.

But all of that is why I, too, must compare my new speakers against some
conventional ones in a blind study.

I do wish I knew which Scott you are, so that I know what body of discourse
we are referring to when you mention that you have read my material before.
