Live Sound Seminar: LS7 - Choosing the Right Loudspeaker for the Application
Chair:Steve Bush, Meyer Sound Labs, Inc. - Berkeley, CA USA
Abstract:
A wide variety of loudspeakers are designed for use in different modern sound reinforcement applications. Examples include line arrays, point-source loudspeakers, loudspeakers with narrow coverage, wide coverage, short-throw and long-throw, and numerous other variations. The primary goal of sound system design is to evenly distribute the sound to the listening audience at the appropriate volume, but it can quickly become overwhelming to know how to best implement the tools available to effectively achieve that goal. This presentation will step participants through a general overview of common loudspeaker types and how they are implemented in different sound system design applications.
