Depending of the amount of reverberation in the
room and the sound shadow (people or objects in
front of a listener who block the direct sound source),
the speech intelligibility at the furthest positions may
be low. In these situations, it is better to use more
loudspeaker arrays to split the listening area.
•
The side lines of the shapes of figure 2 and 3 are the
–6dB points related to the sound pressure level on the
0
0
-axis.
•
To get the best speech intelligibility, define a listening
area where the 4kHz octave shape covers the whole
area.

Diagonal line meanings
B-line: maximum distance from loudspeaker array to last listener.
D-line: half-width listening plane at 1kHz
F-line: listening plane side length at 4kHz
C-line: listening plane length
E-line: half-width listening plane at 4kHz
A-line: minimum distance to listening plane

To determine exactly were the edges of the listening
area are in your situation, you have to carry out a
practical test at the location were the loudspeaker
array is installed. This is a job for an experienced
listener with well-trained ears. To do so, put pink
noise through the loudspeaker array. It is better to
reduce the lower tones for this test, as they do not
contribute to speech intelligibility. Walk around in the
listening area and listen to the high tones. The places
were the high tones decreases rapidly are the edges of
the listening area.
