Acoustics Readings….

[alvinjamur]

After so long (1994), I got hold of the latest version of Pohlmann & Everest. My book is dog
eared and marked up everywhere — all
classic books usually are. If you have not seen/read it, you absolutely must.

What is your favorite book??

 

[Acoustic Lab]

My favourite is Acoustic Absorbers and Diffusers by Cox & D'Antonio. That is another level of understanding acoustics. 440+ pages, not for every audiophile.

FYI - "Quantum" acoustics - a new approach beyond absorption and diffusion:

Acoustics 101 for architecture + interiors

In this new 12-part series on acoustics, we will discuss how to design for an increasingly louder world. We’ll cover acoustic theory (traditional to quantum) and the latest in...

"......As air is the medium on which sound travels, quantization removes the source of acoustical issues before they can exist by quantizing any air molecule before it contacts an interior surface. Air is forced to stop being a medium for the sound energy by forcing air molecules to behave as individual particles and not in groups as a wave. Hence, sound ceases to exist because it has no medium to travel on. Wherever applied, quantization is an acoustical cloak which removes the ability of the material surface beneath it to affect sound...."
