[QUOTE="Rob Timmerman, post: 130466, member: 172"] Re: Help me understand the concept of speaker “throw” please. In general, "throw" is roughly analagous to directivity (with higher directivity implying higher output). As far as I can tell, this comes from the use of directional sources in a reverberant space, where the tighter patterns are able to excite the reverberant field less and get intelligible sound further into the space (extending the region of coverage that gets primarily direct sound). Thus, more directional loudspeakers are considered to "throw" sound further into the room. [/QUOTE]
