Then by the same token, the driver cannot reproduce any single
instrument whose output is not a sine wave...
All instruments have complex waveforms.  What is the difference between
a single instrument and two instruments so far as waveforms are

Besides, what do we use to listen with - a pair of roughly round
diaphragms mechanically coupled to some electrical tissue...
