DSP vs. Acoustic panels
Is it enought to do room correction with DSP or do you still need acoustic treatment? Check out our measurements!
DSP for headphones
Every headphone can benefit from equalization using digital signal processing. See how you can improve the sound of your cans without spending a dime.
Headphones vs. Loudspeakers
We explain the pros and cons of using headphones instead of loudspeakers. It is found that headphones can be a superior choice when the listening environment is challenging.
RD Physics FR4
3D-printed passive satellite speaker for desktop use. The spherical enclosure is superior in terms of resonance, diffraction, baffle step and material use. TangBand W3-1878 drivers from:
RD Physics SW2
3D-printed passive subwoofer with a 5″ driver and 6.5″ passive resonator. The inner walls can be lined with sound deadening mat to increase mass and damping. TangBand W5-1138 drivers from:
RD Physics SW1
3D-printed active subwoofer with a passive resonator and plate amplifier. The walls can be filled with epoxy to increase mass and stiffness significantly. The enclosure is printed in two parts and bonded together. Dayton Audio DSA175 drivers from:
RD Physics FR3
3D-printed with steel-filled filament – Metal-filled filament and internal support add significant mass and rigidity. With Dayton Audio RS-100 drivers from:
RD Physics FR2
Full-range speaker with unique unidirectional carbon fiber skin.
RD Physics FR1
3D printed speaker with cellulose fiber – The cellulose fiber reinforced thermoplastic used is from renewable sources and can be recycled.
