AES Convention 37 · Paper 666 · October 1969

Abstract

The application of a special microphone arrangement in an artificial head for the investigations in architectural acoustics, led to a new 2-channel recording method that avoids well known deficiencies of present day stereophony with headphones. The new method allows correct reproduction of acoustical information at any place in a room, eliminating well known shortcomings, such as: sound sources appearing in the head, lacking of the information from the center plane, overestimation of reverberation and difficult distance judgement.
