High-Fidelity Sound System Equalization by Analysis of Standing Waves

Authors: Groh, Allen R.

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 22 · Issue 10 · pp. 795–799 · December 1974

Abstract

Standing waves of sound are a major factor in home high-fidelity reproduction. While their effects can be neutralized to some extent by electronic equalization, the results may be less than adequate at the lowest audio frequencies. A study was made of standing waves in a rectangular room and a method of equalizing low frequencies by optimizing loudspeaker placement was developed.
