eBook Description: No one can touch the Master ...No other book even comes close to legendary acoustical scientist F. Alton Everest's Master Handbook of Acoustics for a friendly, practice-oriented tour of acoustical principles. This readable yet authoritative guide tenderizes a tough subject so that audio buffs can apply leading-edge acoustical thought and design in their own home recording studios and listening rooms.Keeping his target audience of hobbyists, electronics enthusiasts, and audiophiles always in mind, the author makes the science of sound interesting and understandable. Only someone who understands acoustics as well as Everest--Senior Member of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, the Acoustical Society of America, and the IEEE--could explain these principles so simply, informally, and with such relevance to home projects.
Short on mathematical derivations and long on easy-reading translations of difficult technical subjects, F.

An inexhaustible source of ideas, inspiration, and techniques, it's a classic work that every audiophile wants to own. This book is a true keeper.
