MercuryNews.com: "The pursuit of acoustically stunning concert halls has become a mania in the classical music world. Think Disney Hall in Los Angeles, all $274 million worth of it. But what's to become of arts organizations that can't afford to build from scratch?"

I actually got to preview a system like this while doing some training at Yamaha over the summer. There was an obvious difference as soon as the system was turned on. The downside was when we were allowed to try to control or adjust the system it was nearly impossible, and even the Yamaha employees had a few problems fine tuning it. It does sound a lot more natural than conventional sound reinforcement, but I wonder when it will be refined enough to start to work its way into the theatre world.

I am not completely sure if this is the same thing, but I read about a similar thing last year while writing my Foundations paper. The interesting point though is that the Greeks may have used a similar tactic to amplify the sound in their amphitheaters, obviously without the electronics.
Sounds interesting. I think that it would be a good experience to actually witness this system that they are talking about.It would be beneficial to find out more about the system.
