That looks intriguing, Paul. I obviously missed the introduction, but I will certainly have a closer look at this issue. By the way: I finally got to add ...

Thanks a lot. I think my idea of the triadic diagram is clear enough now. And yes, the diagram for the dyads also looks quite plausible. Then my "plausibility"...

Yes. Substantial psychoacoustic experiments have shown that phase changes have nearly no audible effect. In fact, the BBE Aural Enhancement products work by...
