3-Dimensional room impulse response measurements in critical listening spaces (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Romero Perez, J., & Fazenda, B. (2008, January). 3-Dimensional room impulse response measurements in critical listening spaces. Presented at Institute of Acoustics

Most of the knowledge and the existing objective acoustic measures defined to describe the sound field in large spaces are commonly evoked to predict the acoustic performance of small rooms. It is now becoming evident that this practice leads to flaw... Read More about 3-Dimensional room impulse response measurements in critical listening spaces.
