Abstract:
Following last year's roundtable discussion with six leading live sound loudspeaker design engineers, this year we have invited three designers back to discuss more specific areas of interest. Dave Gunness (Fulcrum Acoustic) will dispel a few myths and offer his insights into some aspects of how loudspeakers are designed and optimized today. Doug Jones (Danley Sound Labs) will focus on the GH 60, an innovative passive fullrange device with asymmetrical coverage levels. Charlie Hughes (Excelsior Audio Design and Services) will discuss HF horn pattern flip and determining crossover parameters between subwoofers and whatever is above.
