The Investigation of the Hall Loudness Evaluation

Abstract:

Loudness is one of the three basic parameters to assess the auditorium sound quality with reverberation time and balance together, it will be discussed in this paper. There are three expressions evaluating the loudness: listening level, the strength index and the mean forte sound pressure level of tutti-sound (LpF). Each of them has their merits and shortcomings. This paper will focus on these three expressions and the feasibility of checking and accepting acoustics of the hall by loudness.
