How can the BBC not be right?


As early as 1962 more than 0.5century ago the BBC was worried of TV speakers becoming smaller and smaller [BBC] and placed at the corner making the sound out of the actor's ear syndrome.


Physics or nature needs a larger size for speakers. It is frequency, wavelength related by the speed of sound in air. Speed of sound is wavelength x frequency. The lower the frequency the longer must be the wavelength.


The small Pleiades cube derivatives of Auratone 5C sound very nice and by today's standards are big.
