Monitor speakers are a necessity for most of our recording. But I have always had a problem with the sound of speakers, and I explain why in this episode.

Speakers always exist in a space with  boundaries, even outside. Our control rooms tend to be small, and making a small room sound good for performing or listening is a challenge. The monitor speakers and the control room form a system. The acoustics of the room have a big impact on the sound.

I also compare the sound of headphones or earbuds with speakers, and provide some advantages and disadvantages of each.

And I talk about immersive formats, like Dolby Atmos and the increased requirements for the speakers and the room.
