Back Emf Phase Relationships In Moving- Coil Loudspeakers (Part 3)
In the third article in this series, we discuss the concept of slip, in order to explain how and why it causes the impedance to be inductive, resistive, or capacitive, depending on frequency.
What Was That Masked Sound Anyway?
In this article, Richard Honeycutt explains the process of sound masking, how it is used, and ways that it can occur unintentionally.
Stereo Listening - Acoustics, Electroacoustics, And Pychoacoustics
Our experience of sound is necessarily subjective, but knowing the history of the science of stereophonic sound can help us to make intelligent decisions about our listening spaces and equipment.
MPEG-H Audio Brings New Dimensions To Tv Sound
Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS designed a way to significantly improve immersive sound reproduction capabilities on consumer playback devices, based on MPEG-H decoding and rendering and Fraunhofer’s upHear soundbar processing. This article is a technology update on MPEG-H and Fraunhofer upHear implementations, now available for licensing to audio video receiver (AVR) and soundbar manufacturers.
Exploring Master Quality Authenticated (Part 1) - Measuring The Difference
