The Quality of Professional Surround Audio Reproduction: A Survey


Aki Makivirta and Christophe Anet
Genelec OY, Iisalmi, Finland

A total of 370 loudspeakers in 166 professional monitoring rooms around the world were measured after acoustical calibration. All rooms were equipped with factory-calibrated, three-way monitors and acoustically calibrated with standardized apparatus. The results provide a thorough understanding of the typical monitoring conditions, the spread in the room parameters, and the quality of reproduced audio.
