Hello Denis,

Nice to hear from you ! Are you still active in the 
audio world these days ?

I still remember being impressed when (long long ago)
first reading the DRC manual. It is IMHO one of the
highest quality open source audio applications I have
ever seen. 

Today I'm still using frequency dependent windowing
techniques for Ambisonic microphone calibration and
similar applications.

Here be dragons. There are so much other variables
involved when dealing with speakers that I suspect
it will be near impossible to 'prove' anything...

Indeed.
