Hmmm, except its not quite the same effect. If I hear a plan(ish) wave in nature such as in thunder or a very distant giant waterfall - it doesnt seem to follow me speaker by speaker a I walk in a 15m line parallel to it (as it does with my wfs array) - with my wfs rig its as if the sound is "staying with me" in the same relative position but coming from a very specific place - ie the speaker nearest to me - in nature it doesn't sound like that - the sound doesnt change relative to the listener but it still sounds like its coming from a long way away. Id love to beleive its because Ive built a fantastic rig - but in reality I believe its probably to do with no having callibrated the speakers yet , being too close to the array and ,well, using cheap speakers......
