Tweaking Phase Response with FIR Filters
Comparative Demonstration of Loudspeaker Response in regard to phase response.
Can you hear phase response changes?
Does phase response change affect the waveform shape/envelope?
Have you compared 2nd order vs 6th order crossover (same magnitude, different phase response)?
Does flat phase sound better?

Short Talks and Demonstrations

This 5-minute video demonstrates that a well-designed sound system enhances the direct sound field and increases the direct-to-reverberant ratio. Such a system can effectively cut through background noise and deliver clear, impactful sound. What does this mean?
The meaning of “the sound system/loudspeaker cuts through the room noise.” The meaning of creating an “upfront” (in-front-of-your-face) feeling by using the correctly designed sound system. Demonstration of Direct to Reverberation Ratio. Auralization narration by Robert McNaull. 2025-02, duration: 5min. |

A perspective of Sound System Optimization
2021-03, duration: 28min Sharing past experiences and perspectives regarding sound system optimization and answering FAQs such as: What is sound system optimization? Do you use ear to tune? What tools do you use? What method do you use? Do you teach sound system design/optimization? Where do you place your microphone? Do you use multiple location of microphone? What's your goal in sound system optimization? |
