I’ve tried this for my speaker setup. And the problem is that the frequency response is a function of volume. For example, the louder I play music the more the bass is accentuated. I think this is because of standing waves. So the problem I

What about when the hydroelectric power plants aren’t running — I assume there’s some seasonal variation here? Exporting more power than you import on a yearly basis might still mean they you need to import power in certain periods during t
