Okay, won't get it apparently ... maybe because I'm not native English speaker or just missing brainpower.

I've never heard of any 3 channel music source - so input to any Tri(-whatever) processing will remain Stereo - right? This is also intended. So, what is wrong with the intention of usage of Trifield like I do? And I have almost 7 or 8 years of reference now in using other 3 channel expand stereo - why do you think I couldn't evaluate or deal with the result?

I even didn't get the allegory - is the NAD/Dirac the jet engine, or the Ferrari (Meridian Trifield)? Anyhow - you know, no propulsion device is relevant for max corner speeds! wink There are other subsystems in a vehicle that are relevant for cornering (accept the mass & COG of it...). Is the acceleration the stereo music result or is it the cornering speed? Vehicle dynamics is my profession and I'm doing racing as well - so I need a better, more precise allegory when you use it that way! grin

Is the main complaint that I don't use the digital input of the 568.2? Or do you think it's a drawback to linearize amplitude, correct phase behaviour of mains, subs the stereo signal (to avoid some of the room weaknesses, modes...) BEFORE using Trifield processing - I really didn't get it. The Stereo input - yes it is analogue - is optimized for my room. You really think it's useless to process the stereo signal previously?

I promise if I don't get it this time I will give it up and leave the wonderful forum and will never ask again.


I'm into TRI... things! wink
