What does this mean? Well, if the group delay is large enough, it will be audible. The audible threshold for group delay is about 30 milliseconds, although lower is desirable. WinSpeakerz calculates group delay to let you know if your design is within the desired range See Figure 4 for the Titanic system group delay (blue plot). As you can see, our example has a maximum group delay at 23 Hz of 9.2 milliseconds. Phase Response The difference in phase between the input of the speaker and the speaker's output is known as the phase response of the system. The phase response of a system should produce a smooth curve with not much in the way of large humps. This would indicate that the group delay is large, approaching the audible limit. Again for our example, the response is smooth, as would be expected by the system's low group delay (Figure 4, purple line)." http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/multi-way/14274-audibility-group-delay.html#post5 28926 |
