The -Humanized- Headphone

Authors: Amplatz, Kurt

AES Convention 33 · Paper 531 · October 1967

Abstract

Research on the physiological reaction of the human ear to sound pressure from (1) a loudspeaker system operating in a free field and (2) earphones coupled closely to the entrance of the human ear. Headsets are commonly tested with the ASA Z 24.5-1951 standardized 6 cc coupler which by no means represents a reconstruction of the human ear and does not simulate ear impedance above 600 Hz.
