A slight digression...

For a long time I've wondered if the ear, being a non-linear 'device' can

actually detect absolute phase at low frequencies. i.e. if the compressions and

rarefactions were swapped, would it sound different?
To test this with a mono source presumably all you'd have to do would be to

have an asymmetric signal and swap the speaker leads, but how would you

objectively test the listener?

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.

Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
