Car audio acoustics is the science of sound behavior in automotive environments. It encompasses the design and layout of car interiors, the placement and configuration of speakers, and the materials and parts used to enhance or damp sound. Automakers can optimize their cars’ audio systems to deliver the best possible sound quality by understanding the principles of car audio acoustics and incorporating them into their designs.
Cars are increasingly electric, so engine and transmission noise no longer mask audio deficiencies, and so the topic is more influential to the driving experience than ever before.
We met with Shanghai Xinzhisheng Technology, a Chinese company specializing in automotive acoustics, and this week’s in-depth article is a look at that company as well as one of their specialties, passive noise cancellation in car interiors.
Don’t forget to register and plan to attend the upcoming DVN Interior Torino Workshop, on 22-23 October in Torino, Italy. All information is on the DVN Interior Website, including the detailed docket, expo program, and sponsorship opportunities. Don’t miss it, save the date! I’m looking forward to meeting you there.
It’s summer vacation time, so your DVN Interior newsletter is on hiatus until Thursday, 22 August.
Sincerely yours,
