Beaming? Directivity? Lobing? What is this?! René Christensen of Acculution explains...

In the audio realm we talk about “beaming”, “directivity”, “lobing” and “breakup” in speakers. But I find that few people understand what it means. So, I asked René Christensen of Acculution to join me and explain. In the video below, René breaks down the math and gives us practical examples, showing how cone geometry and materials can impact radiation and resonance in transducers.

Please leave a “thank you” for Rene in the video comment section and make sure to leave suggestions for future topics you’d be interested in seeing.

(FWIW, my “interview” videos are not monetized)

Cool dive into speaker design considerations. Perhaps for those on a didactic journey, some specific case studies of actual speakers that do (and don't) employ these considerations in the design phase would be useful.

I like your work, @ErinH
