What’s The Measurement? Understanding And Properly Using RTA & FFT
John Murray
06/01/11 07:34 AM,
2 Comments
What’s the best way to equalize a sound system - by ear or by measurement? The short answer is both. Each method compliments the other. The ultimate qualification for sound quality is the ear. If it doesn’t sound right, nothing else matters. I once spent two-plus hours tuning a church sound system using the same methods I’ve employed on more than 100 systems, and the resulting sound was terrible. Rather than trying to convince my ears that the very good…

Power Lines: AC Regulation And Conditioning For Systems
Garth Powell
05/31/11 10:23 AM,
0 Comments
Do I really need an AC (alternating current) power conditioner or regulator? Isn’t my surge protector enough? Two of the most commonly asked questions regarding power, for sure. Answers, in part, come from an understanding of modern-day realities. AC power is far noisier and contaminated than at any time since its inception. This is due not only to an increased population taxing utility lines, but also because of the proliferation of computers and microprocessors. These devices typically run on switching…

Ensuring Aesthetic Concerns Don’t Impact Loudspeaker Selection & Placement
Pat Brown

An auditorium is a “place for hearing”. It’s very definition suggests that any aspect of the space that has to do with communication should be given high priority. Prior to the invention of the sound reinforcement system, an auditorium was a space designed to allow a large number of people to be addressed by an unreinforced talker. The room geometry and acoustical treatments in an auditorium provided natural reinforcement for the acoustic source. The ancient Greeks even built megaphones into…
