Near field ported speakers ..."inaccurately compress the audio" , Bob Katz

Hi - I read this on another forum, I think he was digressing from a discussion of upward expansion and gave the anecdote that he was mixing elsewhere on near field ported speakers, went home to his studio and played on his monitors, and realized the tracks were undercompressed.

I remember reading of the evils of less expensive near field ported speakers, like mine :-( , in Mike Senior's book, but I remember more about innacurate bass responses than anything else.

Is this something that mere mortals notice?
