Ok folks... I know very little about resonance other than the following:

1. Space in front of your speaker is just as important as space behind it.

2. There is a certain amount of cavity that is "ideal" given any speaker setup. Although that is tough to find, and what we're talking about.

Does anyone out there have some really good data on how to go about creating a very "tuned" resonance cavity? I know Erv has hinted toward it in his .pdf, but naturally this is a detailed subject.

I can safely say that resonance plays a *GIGANTOR* role in making an identical speaker in saber X... sound far, far better than saber Y.

It's true that a better speaker = a better speaker... but you can also have:

* Average speaker + GREAT setup = FANTASTIC sound
vs.
* Fantastic spaker + POOR setup = Average sound

Thoughts? Best to reply here if you really know what the heck is going on with sound. I've already done a bunch of experimental "amateur" tests that simply are via my ears... using an apples to apples comparison of the same speaker in like 5 differing resonance setups.
