1 XXXXXX - A new approach to Loudspeakers & room digital correction Background The idea behind XXXXXX came from unsatisfying results from traditional loudspeaker/room equalization methods to get decent sound from a full range loudspeaker. The explanation lies in the loudspeaker directivity issues and inability of classic equalization solutions to solve them. Loudspeakers & room interactions have been investigated by different authors. Many references and a summary of the findings can be found in [1] The bottom line of these studies is that there are 2 major requirements put on a stereo reproduction system to deliver a realistic illusion flat on-axis response balanced reverberant field (smooth level decrease towards high frequencies) Without going into too many details it is important to remind here the reasoning behind those 2 requirements. When listening to a stereo set-up in a room our brain not only gets the direct sound from the loudspeaker but also multiple reflections from the surroundings as visible on a room impulse response measurement: The direct sound is linked to the on-axis response of the loudspeaker and must be as flat as possible to preserve the encoded musical message. The reflections depend on the loudspeaker off-axis radiation pattern & room configuration. energy sent to our ears. If they appear separated from the direct sound on a measurement, we don t hear them as a different event but rather as timbre alterations. This is the first reason why the reverberated sound must be balanced to preserve the timbre of the reproduced music. The second reason is linked to distance perception: a complex processing of sound reflections is done by our brain to evaluate distances. Without reflections we are not able to evaluate the relative distance of a sound source. As explained in [2] the distance perception is linked to the ratio between the direct & reverberated sound. We should focus here on the distance perception linked to the reproduction system (perceived distance between listener & loudspeakers) and not on the distance information in the musical material (level & phases differences embedded in the direct sound) For the listening experience with loudspeaker the ratio between direct & reverberated sound should ideally mimic what happens in our natural environment and what our brain is used too: smooth level decrease of reverberated sound towards high frequencies (as sound absorption is increasing with frequency) If there is a deviation in this ratio for some frequencies, the distance perception will be fooled and the spatial information encoded in the stereo recording will be overridden. On the other hand if the ratio requirement is fulfilled the loudspeaker & room will tend to disappear and the sonic illusion will be there. To sum up if we want to protect both timbre & distance information during reproduction with loudspeakers the main requirements put on them are: flat on-axis & balanced power response as illustrated by this graph taken from [3] These reflections have a strong influence on our listening experience as they represent most of the
2 This is illustrated by the following experiment on a full range driver where a standard equalization is compared to our advanced procedure The issue in loudspeaker design is that the on & off-axis responses are locked together and that we can t change one w/o changing the other. Let s take the example of a 2 way loudspeaker: the on-axis response can be made perfectly flat thanks to optimized passive or active cross-overs. On the other hand the off-axis response will depend on the radiation pattern of each driver and of their acoustical summing in the cross over region. This can be controlled up to a certain extend by the choice of components but not to the point of fully mastering the off-axis response. This is why the power response of such loudspeaker often lacks energy in the cross over region when on-axis response is flat. This is illustrated by the following graph showing the reverberant energy from the room relative to the direct sound from a two-way loudspeaker (taken from [4]) It can be easily seen that the classic equalization method compensate the lack of energy in the reverberant field by modifying the direct sound but the reverberated one will stay uneven. With our procedure, the direct sound is protected and the reverberated sound is much more balanced. Listening to the results is like switching between 2D & 3D representation of the same audio material. The same goes for a more conventional 3 ways loudspeaker test case which lacks some reverberation energy in the 2 to 7 khz region. What about digital equalization? Standard equalization methods are based on filters that only change the direct sound, so the only choice left to the designer is either a flat on-axis response or a smooth power response: both will sound differently but none will fulfill the 2 critical requirements exposed before. Our specific signal processing procedure unlocks this constraint and allows a separate control of the direct & reverberated sound.
3 Our specific method is complemented with levels & phase equalization to bring the best from your loudspeakers: Timbre Our equalization method provides a fully balanced sound thanks to the optimization of the direct & reverberated sound. A final step based on multi points measurements ensure a full tonal correction especially in the lower end where the room modes are problematic Timing The quest of almost perfect pulse is managed with specific phase correction procedures that guarantee a minimal level of pre ringing. These procedures are not limited to high frequencies range and can correct issues in the bass region when possible (acceptable pre ringing) w/o correction Imaging Great imaging comes naturally from the previous steps: improved timing through phase corrections, neutral direct sound & balanced reverberated sound. XXXXXX
4 Requirements As input data we need room impulses for each loudspeaker at and around sweet spot (9 measurements is a good average value) The distance between sweet spot & other measurements depend on the area to be covered by the equalization process There are several freeware tools to make such measurements (REW, HOLMImpulse for instance) Either wav or REW format are accepted The XXXXXX correction procedure generates 4 different FIR filters. These filters need to be used combined thanks to a multi-channel convolver. Some players that offer multi-channel convolution: JRiver, Foobar (with VSTconvolver plugin), HQ player
