An article has been recently published on Acoustics, a high quality peer-reviewed scientific journal by the reputed Open Access publisher MDPI. 

The article is entitled Non-special loudspeakers as speech test sources in natural acoustics speech intelligibility investigations and is freely accessible from the journal website and from this link https://www.mdpi.com/2624-599X/5/3/38.

It has been authored by Dr Luis Gomez-Agustina and co-authored by Dr Haydar Aygun and Ms Liji Suseela Thankom Mohan. The work has attracted 137 views within 24h since publication; likely due to its real-world application in the concerned industry. The authors expect that the novel findings of this study will inform practitioners on the suitability of affordable loudspeakers when standardized special test loudspeakers are not available. We hope you enjoy the read.
