Authors: Heyser, Richard C.

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 17 · Issue 1 · pp. 30–41 · January 1969

Abstract

A technique is described for measurement of the complete frequency response of a loudspeaker, including amplitude and phase. A concept of time delay is introduced which provides a physical description of the effect of phase and amplitude variations as a frequency-dependent spatial smearing of the effective acoustic position of a loudspeaker.
