They can certainly tell the difference if the left and right hand
channels are out of phase.

What do you mean by out of phase ?

Oh dear, dear, dear.

Are you saying that getting the speaker wires crossed is out of phase ?


Yep, if you do that with just one of the two speakers.

You do know that the human ear can;t detect phase don't you ,


It can with a pair of stereo speakers with one with the wires transposed.

The human ear is insensitive to a constant relative phase change in a
static waveform.


What you get on speakers aint a static waveform, stupid.


And humans can't detect phase, they can tell if something sounds distorted but that doesnl;t tell then what phase the signals are at.

the ear sure can tell when too sounds otherwise the same arrive in
antiphase qand cancel each other out.

Bass performance of a pair of stereo speakers is seriously ****ed if one
is in antiphase. Mind you with subwoofers these days the problem is less
noticeable.
