Does Time alignment and Phase coherency make for a better loudspeaker?

Little snarky there holmz...I was referring to the sound of multiple musicians playing the same music with space between them. I attend concerts I don’t mix, and ones I do mix I listen to unamplified sound from various areas during sound check including right in front of or on the stage. If you can’t understand my posts, why are you here?

I am not always the model of all things Buddhist, which is also why I asked the question ending in the question mark.

As there no way to adjust non sound reinforced music it also is hard not to be snarky. The only thing that really needs adjustment anyhow are the speakers. The rest is time-n-phase correct.

Appolgies for the tone, in any case.

@audition__audio , That different time correct loudspeakers have different tonal balances suggest that your complaint might be the result of something other than time correctness.

Other than the Thiel CS 5 and 5i, I don’t think the other Thiel models cross-overs are that much more extrodinarily complex than some others.

While you are certainly entitled to your opinion and indeed many other’s share it too, the Thiel’s have also been reviewed by others as having something of the opposite impresson. They tend to measure relatively flat.

I suppose if someone in Washington state or Alabama had a set of Thiels then they could be tested on a Klipple.
Then would have something objectively interesting.

@rooze  I wonder if the Evolution Acoustics MM3s which have a family resemblence to Dunlavy Vs have similar time alignment.  Does anyone know?

Despite the truly great sound emanating from Dunlavy's, I cannot tolerate single point/seat listening.  Sure, it's great for me, but not for my wife and my friends who sit across a 10 foot couch.   I am looking at speakers more like Von Schweikert's which have a very broad listening/seating area for tonal equality many feet in width.  My wife hated the Monolith IIIs in 1997 prior to my getting Legacy Focuses and double pair of Hallographs.  

I just think it's amazing I've started a discussion without saying anything is the KING.
