Yes But the unanswered question is, can we really detect the originating direction of low frequency sound if you do not have assistance of the over 80-120Hz overtones ?
Or is the directional hint the the sensation of the impact on you body of the sound preassure wave ( high volume needed)? There are research results indicating that it is not so important, that the highfrequency pshychocoustic impressions overrides and creates the directional impression. Do any one have the definitive answer to this? Or do we really have to care, as far as "normal" use of mono channel for < 80Hz sounds. For the 5.1 specification satellite speakers are to be able to go down to the cutover between 80 to 100 Hz, that some manufacturers of lowcost 5.1 appliances have a much higher cutover frequency is the normal corner cutting in low cost products. - Bo-Erik -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Martin Leese Sent: den 8 juni 2011 18:35 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Sursound] Fwd: Bass Problem in crosstalk cancellation Marc Lavall?e <[email protected]> wrote: ... > Ambisonics can supposedly reproduce > bass from all directions; is it true? Yes, assuming: 1. The source contains bass from all directions 2. The standing waves in the room don't screw up localisation of bass frequencies. But this is also true for 5.1 (assuming some idiot doesn't stuff all of the bass into the LFE channel).
