Some of the physical and psychological factors of reproduced sound in an automobile are discussed. The environmental conditions such as: ambient noise as it affects audible frequency and dynamic range, -listening room- size, audience seating arrangement, and acoustical properties, are compared with these conditions in a living room or concert hall.
