The title embodies the book's central theme: loudspeakers and rooms comprise a system that, along with listeners, must be approached as a whole by those of us who undertake to design listening experiences. In this 550-page work, Toole brings together—much of it in one place for the first time—a wealth of research, experience, and practice from scores of investigators like himself working over many decades, and distills from it a number of empirically substantiated recommendations for practice. In the process, he examines some beliefs and rituals long held sacred in some quarters, and finds many to be not merely irrelevant, but in some cases counterproductive. |
