Abstract

[Feature] Loudspeaker and headphone design challenges span a range from the highest quality to the smallest, cheapest drivers and boxes. Measurements that correspond more closely to perception are gaining ground as it is discovered that certain kinds of distortion in loudspeakers can be very high without being annoying. Headphones often need equalization to make them sound natural.
