Cocktail Party Effect

The advantages of the approach based on the Cylindrical RadiatorTM loudspeaker are comprehensive because both the primary and secondary problems characteristic of the triple-system approach are addressed.

1. Full use of the property of hearing known as the cocktail party effect In the audience and on stage, regardless of location, the sound of each instrument or voice comes from a different direction. Thus the full spatial richness present in an unamplified performance is achieved. The full benefit of the cocktail party effect – the ability to pick out and appreciate individual instruments and voices because they are coming from different directions – is enjoyed by musicians and members of the audience.
