Re: [AUDITORY] loudspeaker recommendations



Dear Maria,

You might want to look at the Genelec 8040, even though it has 2 drivers and you mention that you are after 1.  We bought a pair on the recommendation of a buddy who works at one of the hearing aid manufacturers in this town, and we're very happy with them

Cheers
David

Subject: loudspeaker recommendations

Dear Colleagues,

So far we have been conducting our behavioural experiments using high quality headphones, but for various reasons will need to shift to using free field sound presentation for some of our work.  I was hoping you might be able to recommend a high quality loud speaker to use for this purpose; Ideally, one that we can purchase easily from the UK.

 

Our requirements:  Experiments are conducted in a small-ish sound-proof booth, and we plan to position a single loudspeaker about 50-70 cm in front of the listener (space constraints prevents this from being any further away). Stimuli are spectrally rich ‘soundscapes’.  

My understanding is that we should prefer single cone speakers?

 

Many thanks,

Maria
