SPEAKER: Fried Reim, Chief Strategist, Lake People (Violectric) And ultimately, gain an understanding of how a balanced setup may (or may not) be best for your listening experience. Learn how balanced signals are created, handled, and output by the various components of your signal chain (DACs, amplifiers, interconnects, and headphones). Is balanced the best way to go? Join Fried Reim of Lake People (Violectric) as he covers the fundamentals and benefits of balanced audio. SPEAKER: Axel Grell, Founder & CEO, Grell Audio In my presentation I give an overview of the historical and current developments. The shape and directivity of the sound-field in the ear-cup are crucial for the spatial perception. The geometry and the acoustical impedance of the headphone have a big influence on the perceived sound. But the perceived sound is not only dependent on the frequency response curve. Today a lot of headphone enthusiasts are measuring the frequency responses of their headphones. The Influence of Geometry, Directivity and Acoustical Impedance of Headphones on Sound Perception SPEAKER: Rob Watts, Digital Design Consultant, Chord Electronics Finally, personal preferences aside, learn the objective criteria by which all DACs should be judged for high fidelity audio applications.
Join Rob Watts, Digital Design Consultant for Chord Electronics, as he explores the various DAC architectures commonly employed today, and breaks down the strengths and weaknesses of each. Director Electroacoustic Engineering from xMEMS Labs, Inc.ĭAC Architectures: The Good, The Bad, And The UglyĪlthough digital audio is ubiquitous these days, finding an optimal DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) remains a complicated, and often confusing, task. This innovative transduction mechanism has also produced the world’s fastest and most precise µspeakers, eliminating spring and suspension recovery of coil speakers which improves audio quality and sound field reproduction.
This new, solid-state architecture implements both actuation and diaphragm in silicon resulting in unmatched part-to-part frequency response and phase consistency. This talk will introduce a new, all-silicon transduction mechanism that is set to disrupt century-old coil/magnet driver architectures.
