Yesterday, at lunch, two of us went over to one of the local audio dealers (
Absolute Sound , Princeton, NJ ). Among various other more or less good pieces
of equipment that we were demonstrated, we heard a pair of speakers made by an
outfit called ITC. 

What was amazing about these speakers was the top - quality sound ( no flames,
please, if I say that the sound is good, it is as far as I am concerned )
emanating from such small speakers. The speakers did not seem to be much taller
than 1.5 feet, by 1 by 1 foot. They were mounted on relatively tall pedestals (
ca. 2.5 feet ). Furthermore, they were also somehow connected or at least
associated to a small black box called Bass Distortion Reducer, again by ITC.

Since we heard an excellent recording, played on a CD player, the sound was, to
quote a prominent Valley Girl, like totally awesome. As was the imaging.

Can any of the more technically oriented readers of this net perhaps enlighten
me as to how ITC can achieve such good sound from the small case describhed,
and furthermore, what role does the Bass Distortion Reducer play, or how does
it work?
