Sound Field Management handles flexible subwoofer placement in irregular room shapes

Evidence

Then, I challenged him to find a solution that would work in rooms of non-rectangular shapes—such as my own home theater. In this effort he was joined by Allan Devantier, to develop Sound Field Management a powerful multiple-subwoofer scheme that employed on-site measurements, an optimization algorithm and signal processing in the signals supplied to each subwoofer. The room shapes and the locations of the subwoofers were more flexible. — Toole, Floyd E, Sound reproduction- the acoustics and…, 215
