Hello!
I've noticed something that I never noticed before. When I'm watching movies thru my stereo system (plain stereo) I notice that the left channel carries more high frequency sound while the right channel carries more low frequency sound. So even when a low frequency sound (such as a person with a low voice speaking) is localized on the left side of the picture, the sound will more dominantly come out of the right side because of its low frequency nature. I thought that this was due to my stereo sytem so I tried hooking up my boombox and it was the same thing. Infact, I've noticed that this is the case for all things stereo that I have whether it be listening to the radio, watching TV, listening to CD's. Why is this? I thought low and high frequency sound was suppose to be equally outputed to both channels?
