Comments on withdrawal of AES-5id-1997

Comments to date on withdrawal of AES-5id-1997 (r2003) AES information document for room acoustics and sound reinforcement systems - Loudspeaker modeling and measurement - Frequency and angular resolution for measuring, presenting, and predicting loudspeaker polar data, published 2009-04-15 for comment.

Comment received from Roger Schwenke, Meyer Sound Laboratories, 2009-04-17

AES56 does not inform readers of the expected error associated with different resolutions and thus does not supersede AES-5id.

Reply from John Stewart, SC-04-03 Working Group Chairman, 2009-07-18

Your comment prompted further review of the situation. We are rescinding the withdrawal of AES-5id.

Thank you for raising our awareness.

Respectfully yours,

John Stewart, SC-04-03 Working Group Chairman
