For those who can add a computer as a source, can you please try this experiment and report back.
Recently I was told that sound images placed using level-difference are more "stable" (less prone to shift as you move around relative to your speakers) than images places via time-difference.
To test this I used this time-intensity trading applet. I placed the image to the left of the soundstage as shown in the photos. First with -4dB level difference, then with -0.44ms time difference. Then I shifted my head to the RIGHT until the image disbanded and I could hear the sound from the right speaker.
To my ear BOTH IMAGES SHIFTED THE SAME AMOUNT. That is, neither image was more "stable" than the other.
Can others please try this same experiment in their room and report back?
Is one image more stable than the other in your room?
Here's link again:
Thanks in advance!
