Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Well, okay, I guess I'm in. Matt may be more qualified for this than 
I am, but since the waves for bass frequencies are longer, wouldn't 
it take longer and further for them to propagate? High frequencies 
do have at least the psychological illusion of being faster, and 
(Matt?) poor tweeter design, among other things, can interfere with 
the path of high frequency sound waves. I suppose if that were true, 
someone could find a way to manipulate at least the perception of 
how "quickly" sound hits your ears.
