Take this for what it is worth:
"HUMAN CONTROLLED SYSTEMS of SPL generation are an INTEGRATED system that stretches all the way from the skill/intentions of the player to the movement of the speaker cone in the room. A (hopefully) harmonious system that is inter-dependant (to varying degrees and often in a bewilderingly complicated series of relationships)
ON EVERY SINGLE COMPONENT IN THE SYSTEM. Again. INTEGRATED SYSTEM, DEPENDANT TO VARYING DEGREES ON EVERY COMPONENT IN THE SYSTEM.
EVERY SINGLE COMPONENT IN THE WHOLE SYSTEM MATTERS TO SOME DEGREE, IN SOME RESPECT.
The pick matters.
Dude.
The FUCKING PICK MATTERS."
It is no debate, just carefully and critically listen.
