Compounded by the fact that our cars, rooms, and speakers are in various shapes, sizes, and configurations, the same note from the same instrument can sound completely different, let alone a whole song! That’s why ancient amphitheaters were designed with acoustic projections in mind, so voices could carry. Our range is around 20-20,000 Hz, and the closer we approach or exceed these boundaries, the softer things sound. Certain frequencies are louder than others to our ears, despite having the same or even more energy behind it. As with all sound engineering, the basis is on the human ear. Equalizers are software or hardware filters that adjust the loudness of specific frequencies.
