As the unisons come together, it still sounds terrible, but the sustain gets even louder! Don Kansas City

Might be interesting! I only recently learned about this phenomenon for piano tuning. The way I understand it, the sound is more pleasant when the beat frequency of octaves is audible, rather than causing a subsonic variation in amplitude. Is this a reasonable explanation? Paul E.
