This workshop will cover a range of topics from the initial idea to the finished product. The experts from the respective fields will discuss car cabin acoustics, loudspeaker selection and placement, signal flow and amplifier characteristics, sound tuning, audio design philosophy, and creation of the 3D sound algorithm. Each topic will be discussed in general and in the context of actual projects.
