Argument by authority, nice. Care to elaborate? (Sorry to anyone who
is sick of PA, but for once I'm seeing the chance to learn something
from one of these threads ;-)).

If the problem is too complex to explain in layman terms, that's
understandable. However, is the problem one that would be unacceptable
in a professional setting (e.g. a recording studio, ...) as it would
cause subtle issues. Or is it a problem that I should be able to
observe on my crappy speakers at home? If so, what am I listening for?
How would I go about reproducing it?

Cheers,

Tom
