Convention Paper

Loudspeaker Placement for Optimized Phanton Source Reproduction

Authors: Theiss, B.; Gerhard, J.; Hawksford, Malcolm J.

AES Convention 100 · Paper 4246 · May 1996

Abstract

The room-loudspeaker interface and its influence on optimal virtual image recreation are investigated, and a number of popular loudspeaker layouts are compared using psychoacoustics criteria. The superiority of one specific approach is demonstrated, and two techniques using measurement and subjective metrics are described which enhance the precision of phantom sources by fine tuning loudspeaker placement.
