All of you listeners who take seriously the matter of whether digital watches and such can affect your stereo's performance should first consider the location of EVERY other item in the room which has a size comparable to an acoustic wavelength (which means roughly everything in the room!). What you say is more significant for a very live room, of course. For a VERY dead room (and anechoic rooms, listening tests done while floating openly in the atmosphere away from any reflecting surfaces, and other such carefully controlled environments) the only factors will be the speakers themselves... Thanx for the attempt to put reality back in (this group can use some of this)...now if we could just control the effect produced by the gelatinous, (viscous?, non-elastic?) blobs that reflect nonsense from above some pairs of shoulders...and the heat it produces sometimes...
