Line-source Loudspeakers
This is a collection of papers and articles on the subject of design and analysis of loudspeaker arrays. I did some work on these a few years ago and even built two of my designs whilst at KEF Electronics Ltd. I've posted these articles because I expect that they are not available elsewhere. (I was alarmed to see some of them are even older than me!). Many of the papers are scans of old typescripts and the quality is not great. There are some annotations too, not all by me. I am sorry that I am not able to give full details of each article but I have provided all the details that I have available.
I am very grateful to Dr Richard Small and Laurie Fincham, formerly of KEF Electronics Ltd, for their guidance and infectious enthusiasm for audio and acoustics.
Please feel free to email me if you have other articles on this topic or other relevant information. p.naylor@imperial.ac.uk
