Um, well, yeah.   I suggest YOU look up the terms coupling, gradient, and
"loosely coupled systems with very low coupling efficiency".

See how THEY apply to a 4" speaker all the way across the room in the
cabinet.    See how opening and closing the doors of the
cabinet makes more difference, and how the person who "found"
the problem shut/opened the cabinet doors at the same time.

I would like to propose a new newsgroup called,
	"net.audio.superstition.audiophile" for
"serious" discussions.

Thank you,
