Perhaps if that "room" is an an-echoic chamber...Â* 8-)

No. Anechoic chambers don't have an acoustic size - they simulate
infinite space.

They also don't have reflective surfaces that lead to phase issues
such as cancellations and boosts. Most listening rooms DO have those
problems, while earphones do not.


Actually the acoustic space within headphone earcups do cause problems
too. Even the space within your ear canal! And problems in rooms can be
reduced by acoustic treatment.


At least we agree about some aspect of this. But, the problems within
headphone earcups are minor compared to their non-liner response curves.
