Written by an international studio designer, the book takes you right through the general aims and objectives of studio monitoring designs and their technical and human limitations to the individual components of the monitor chain and those parts influence overall performance. The final chapter looks at the need for a variety of designs to cope with difficult physical circumstances and the inconsistencies of human perception.
