What's with the ghetto bungee cords?

I can't wait for the Super Mega Ultra THX Supreme DVD's to come out with 150.1 Dolby Digital.

Where do you put your TV?

Did you count them?



What I think is funny is the sound deadening on the walls. I want to know what they were doing. If testing, wouldn't you want the environment a little more "real world"?

The speaker array contains 64 speakers.

This room is actually the anechoic chamber at my work. The room is 2.5 stories high, setting on top of the buildings 8th floor and extending through the roof. The room itself is completely isolated from the building, with the exception of a spring loaded foundation.

We use the chamber for research projects. It is designed to stop acoustic reflections so we do not get any echoes (ane = without, choic = echo).

Audio fidelity is horrible in the room, everything sounds dead and flat due to the absence of reflected sound. We generally use the room to test signal processing algorithms or localization. Reflected sound tends to muddy up peoples responses to sounds, this ensures that the signal being presented into the room is as clean as possible.
