Lots of interesting stuff in that thread.....One comment you make in the DIY thread about 1-2 usec ITD being incongrous with 20 KHz bandwidth. I don't think it is a problem at all since you are talking about measuring the time difference of two different sensors measuring the same signal and this has nothing to do with the frequency of the signal being measured, only the resolution of the system meauring both sensors to detect a _difference_ in the trigger time.
The other common misconception is that the ITD in a CD signal is limited by the 44.1 Khz sampling rate when in fact it is limited by the 16 bit sample depth for exactly the same reason. The discrete time sampling does not limit the ITD in any way since you are talking about 2 different signals and the time delay between them. You need very high phase resolution to produce very short time delays and the bit depth is what limits the possible phase differences.
