FWIW I did some analysis of the peak levels of band-divided musical

signals
from CD when looking at clipping and tweeters (some pages on this on
the 'Scots Guide' site). Can't be sure, but I'd be surprised if in
general you got much more than a few dB of sound level increase before
occasional clipping. i.e. not much more than the smallest change that
is clearly noticable.

You may, however, get an apparent increase if the frequency response
changes as that may affect the audibility and the audible impression
conveyed. However as with Wally's experiments, if this is the case,
then similar results might be obtained more easily.


I don't know if this is relevant, but the Behringer allows you to delay
each frequency band with respect to the others by up to 2 ms. This is
intended to pull speakers back into phase when one is further back than
another. Would this help with the potential problem you described?


Sorry, I'm not clear which specific problem you are referring to above. Can
you remind me?

Slainte,

Jim
