One good source of information about psychoacoustics and how it relates to sound reproduction can be found in '_Floyd_Toole's_book_' (http://www.amazon.com/Sound-Reproduction-Acoustics-Psychoacoustics-Loudspeakers/dp/0240520092/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1402868463&sr=1-1&keywords=floyd+toole) (Amazon link). There's a '_free_PDF_' (http://audioroundtable.com/misc/Loudspeakers_and_Rooms.pdf) available of an article he wrote on the subject that's a precursor to his book. So if you like the article, you'll probably like the book too. Here is a sample of some things discussed in the article:
> 2 AUDIBLE EFFECTS OF REFLECTIONS > A SURVEY > In anticipation of experimental results showing listener > reactions to reflections in a variety of circumstances, it is > useful to have some perspective on what might be found. > The following is a quick review of these known effects: > Localization (direction)the precedence effect > Localization (distance) > Image size and position > Sense of space > Timbre: comb filtering, repetition pitch > Timbre: audibility of resonances > Speech intelligibility Toole is retired from Harman and spent his life's work on the subject. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ andy_c's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3128 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101723
