Abstract
Our physical senses are not capable of absolute qualitative or quantitative measurement but they indicate by comparison only. Their reaction to harmonious sounds is an emotional or artistic experience not measurable by ordinary means but definitely established as a psychological entity. Conventional theater or auditorium loudspeakers do not reproduce the emotional effect created by a “live” orchestra and it is proposed that these systems which are highly directional be replaced by another system with nondirectional characteristics in which reverberation from a multitude of separate loudspeakers replaces or even enhances the original sound picture. The physical difficulties involved in constructing such a system are bridged by the use of a radio frequency carrier for signal distribution.
