  2. Listener fatigue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Listener_fatigue

    Symptoms include tiredness, discomfort, pain, and loss of sensitivity. Listener fatigue is not a clinically recognized state, but is a term used by many professionals. The cause for listener fatigue is still not yet fully understood it is thought to be an extension of the quantifiable psychological perception of sound. Common groups at risk of ...

  3. Radio noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_noise

    Radio noise near in frequency to a received radio signal (in the receiver's passband) interferes (RFI) with the operation of the receiver's circuitry.The level of noise determines the maximum sensitivity and reception range of a radio receiver; if no noise were picked up with radio signals, even weak transmissions could be received at virtually any distance by making a radio receiver that had ...

  4. Audio-to-video synchronization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio-to-video_synchronization

    If the sound source is 340 meters from the microphone, then the sound arrives approximately 1 second later than the light. The AV-sync delay increases with distance. During mixing of video clips normally either the audio or video needs to be delayed so they are synchronized. The AV-sync delay is static but can vary with the individual clip.

  5. Distortion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distortion

    In signal processing, distortion is the alteration of the original shape (or other characteristic) of a signal.In communications and electronics it means the alteration of the waveform of an information-bearing signal, such as an audio signal representing sound or a video signal representing images, in an electronic device or communication channel.

  6. Electronic voice phenomenon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_voice_phenomenon

    The device is described as a combination white noise generator and AM radio receiver modified to sweep back and forth through the AM band selecting split-second snippets of sound. Critics of the device say its effect is subjective and incapable of being replicated, and since it relies on radio noise, any meaningful response a user gets is ...

  7. HDMI - Wikipedia

    In September 2009, AMD announced the ATI Radeon HD 5000 series video cards, which have HDMI 1.3 output (deep color, xvYCC wide gamut capability and high bit rate audio), 8-channel LPCM over HDMI, and an integrated HD audio controller with a Protected Audio Path that allows bitstream output over HDMI for AAC, Dolby AC-3, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD ...

  8. Hyperacusis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperacusis

    By listening to broadband noise at soft levels for a disciplined period of time each day, some patients can rebuild (i.e., re-establish) their tolerances to sound. [ 2 ] [ 47 ] [ 48 ] [ 49 ] More research is needed on the efficacy of sound therapy techniques when hyperacusis is the primary complaint, rather than a secondary symptom, indicating ...

  9. Magnetostatic loudspeaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetostatic_loudspeaker

    Magnetostatic speakers provide good sound quality, and may be very thin, but for producing also lower frequencies with good enough sensitivity, their height and width dimensions must be rather large. [1] Magnepan is the main producer of magnetostatic loudspeakers for high fidelity home audio.
