Folks,


I'm a recovering audiophile. When i was reading the magazines and

reading about over priced (in my now opinion) speakers, the words "full

range" tended to mean that a speaker was reasonably flat from 20 Hz to

20 kHz.  Granted those were unusual.


I have read that speakers in an ambisonic set up should be "full range".

I'd like to set up a ambisonic speaker system (8 channel to start), and

the prospect of 8 full range channels is daunting.  Since it seems they

would be stand or wall mounted (at least some of them) that means

monitors and subwoofers. Since all channels must be the same, that means

8 subwoofers...somewhere in the room.


So what does "full range" mean usually and what does it mean in terms of

talk on this list?


Thanks,


Bearcat
