Voice Coil Focus: A Fresh Take on Green Audio 2023

Good intentions for sustainability, circularity, or simply reducing your carbon foot-print in the development or manufacturing stages not always produces the intended results. Mike Klasco reminds us how things are not always as simple as we would like, and that having good intentions and throwing empty claims might work on paper, but not actually work in the real world.

Practical Test & Measurement: The Proof Is in the Testing

The Klippel Near Field Scanner System (NFS) was used for the critical testing and measurement of Holoplot's X1 Matrix Array compensation algorithm capabilities. All our readers who have appreciated the story of the development of the unique Holoplot technology, published in the September 2022 issue of audioXpress, will enjoy reading about how Klippel and Holoplot worked to overcome frequency absorption and gain reduction challenges that resulted from the need to conceal the X1 systems behind an acoustically semi-transparent projection panel.

Speaker Measurements: Replacing IEC 60268-5 (Part 2) - The Importance of Measurements

This article concludes the examination by Geoff Hill of the work taking place on loudspeaker measurement standards, and the progress the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has made with its update efforts, also resulting from the work of the Audio Engineering Society's Standards Committee. We learn how these new standards apply to measurements of sound in 3D space and in production environments, SPL using voltage sensitivity, and the measurements of microspeakers. This article was originally published in audioXpress, October 2022.
