Abstract :
In theaters and halls reflections play a key role in sound quality. The experimental characterization of reflected components of sound is very difficult and classical measurement techniques are not generally very effective. A new method for sound reflection time measurements without the problems of existing techniques, is illustrated in this paper, with some experimental results.
