'Sounds Bad? Sounds Good?' Redux

摘要

Back in July 2017, I penned a piece entitled, "Sounds Bad? Sounds Good? Who Knows The Difference Anymore?" It's a great read—especially if you grew up listening to music out of loudspeakers bigger than a tissue box! In fact, that column is one of my most widely read on Sound & Communications' website. During this past InfoComm, I moderated two panel discussions. Both sessions were great, packed with industry leaders to the point of being standing room only. The first was entitled, "AV/IT Best Practices for Unified Communications & Collaboration (UC&C)"; the second was entitled, "The Future of Workspace Design." This was my first time volunteering like this for InfoComm, and I enjoyed doing so. However, although most of the comments—perhaps 90 percent—were positive, a few people thought I was steering the discussion toward the issue of sound quality. And, admittedly, I was!
