Looks like if the monitor speaker is not producing any sound, ref amp. and tweaked amp sound the same into the given load (hey maybe they should check whether the monitor speaker burps during 1812 cannon firing). Maybe they should also check that the monitor speaker produces no sound with other identical pair of load speakers after the tweaking is done, but this might not be necessary. Any more ideas? ---------------------------------------------- Kong Kritayakirana (kong@leland.stanford.edu) Remotely reading and posting to rec.audio from a nice beach somewhere in south pacific.
