L1 Loudness Behind: Difference between revisions

Line 5:

|RightBody = The L1 systems offer extremely wide horizontal coverage (approximately 180 degrees), however, we rarely consider loudness behind them.

If you find the L1 systems too loud when placed behind you, consider using high-quality hearing protection. Putting them beside or ahead of you will make very little difference for frequencies up to 1000 Hz or the sensation of loudness. However, behind the L1 system, the sound will sound muffled because the mid-high frequencies are more directional than the lows.

== Test Results ==

The average difference measuring in front of an L1 and directly behind it (180 degrees off-axis) is +3 dB SPL dBA and dBC.

The noticeable difference is that the sound behind the L1 is muffled (mid-high frequencies less apparent).

The average difference measuring in front of an L1 and beside it (90 degrees off-axis) is +3 dB SPL dBA and dBC.
