Behind The Science of Sound... for Adults! |
|
|
Have you ever wondered if your levels mean on your equalizer or why a certain tone is uncomfortable? Each of us experiences sound through vibrations in the air causing our eardrums to vibrate, and this vibration is then converted into signals received by our brain, but the delivery of that sound can make all of the difference. Join us as we explore the world of speakers, headphones, sound bars and more with Carlo LoRaso.
Saturday, July 30 at 1 PM | For Adults
$10/Free for Members/Reservations Recommended, limited space
