So why's it closed?
Re-do on real speakers-
In both cases the 2nd 'guit is a bit fluffyer' around the points -sounds a little less direct'. If I were to guess (I guess I am..;) -if cardioid, let's say 1 is say 3" or less, 2-3 out 5-6".
Of the snare 2 and 3 at least sound like the same base sound with 3 much deader, 2 more snare decay' -(brighter room? I still don't get #1 though- sounds like less center hit or less dwell time on the skin.
 
.. And that you swapped position and rooms in the guitar tests rather than mic distance as I guessed is good evidence to your theory. :)
Two more for 'factors- Larger room = longer time gaps, lower relative levels on the reflections. (More 'true perhaps with close mic cab' vs the typical snare/mic/floor combination.

You may want to restate your questions in a different way.
I must confess I have read your post at least 12 times and my head is swimming each time.
I can't tell what the heck you are saying or trying to figure out.(giggle)

By the looks of it, at least 40 plus others have looked without comment.

You are not a Martian trying to play mind games with me are you?
 
'Why it it closed'? That was aimed at this> https://homerecording.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=277534

I assume too much- to a fault often enough. ;)

It was closed, then opened again, then closed again. Weird. Many times when a mod closes a thread, the last post in the thread is an explanation from the mod of why the thread was closed, but that didn't happen this time. The link you included just points to the top of the thread.

Not weird at all. It wasn't closed by a mod. :)
