If you reproduce the wider bandwidth recording over 'perfect' speakers, the intermodulation products will not be there and the original signals above 20 kHz will not be heard. The result should be the same as a recording limited to 20 khz. It makes IMHO no sense to require a wider bandwidth just to exploit a deficiency of the reproduction system. If the distorted version sounds better, the distortion should just be added in the mix. > btw: I couldn't find the command line switch to give jaaa > instances a jack-name in order to run more than 1, it doesn't > seem to show up in jaaa -h? -name should do it. I'm not 100% sure it's in the current release but I think it is (the version I use here has evolved a lot - new release expected before LAC2006). -- FA
