Listeners can indicate preferred levels of individual reflected sounds

Evidence

It is educational to review some of the pioneering research into the kinds of reflected sounds that are most preferred by listeners. What we learn may be surprising. For example: what happens when listeners are allowed to choose the level of a single reflection, based on what they perceive as a sense of pleasantness—a preference? — Toole, Floyd E, Sound reproduction- the acoustics and…, 684
