Claim:
1. A system for demonstrating spatial and temporal performance of a demonstration speaker model to consumers in order to evaluate different speakers, comprising: at least one microphone for receiving an output sound of the demonstration speaker model, the microphone receiving the output sound of the demonstration speaker model at at least one position; one or more acoustic input samples for processing to an acoustic output; a processor for a reference speaker model for outputting an acoustic signal based on the result of the processing, the reference speaker model comprising at least one speaker; the processing compensating for a performance characteristic of the reference speaker and a performance characteristic of the selected demonstration speaker so as to mimic spatial characteristics of the demonstration speaker while avoiding bias from the reference speaker and the at least one microphone; and wherein the outputted acoustic signal provides an accurate representation of the temporal and spatial performance of the demonstration speaker model outputting the acoustic input sample to the consumer.
