Have you ever tried to match any two sources within 0.1 db?
I know how to do it in principle and given the right equipment
to work with. And there is an EQ on the market that supposedly
incorporates a special circuit to do that. So practically no
one has either of the forgoing. Let me ask you: suppose that
you have matched them within 0.1 db as you specified, how do
you demonstrate to me that you have done so?
I hope we don't have to resort to such hairsplitting to
squelch the monster-wire fringe. Can you find me two loudspeakers
matched within 0.1 db? As a practical matter I doubt we can do
much of anything within that tolerance over the band of concern.
