I found myself wondering about impulse responses, and how they relate to an actual speaker cabinet. From all the technical banter among more enlightened people I've eavesdropped on, I've gathered that frequency specific phase and envelope distortions are also characteristics of any cabinet. It is my understanding that IR's, as they are implemented now, only emulate the static frequency response of the modeled cabinet. Correct me if this is not the case...
And this is not to say that the IR's aren't convincing already! I have a hard time telling the difference between the modeled and actual cabs. This is rather an attempt at brainstorming. How could one incorporate these quirks into existing modeling? Is it possible with current CPU limitations? And most important of all, do they actually make a difference? Let's hear it!
