Abstract

Directional effects in reproduced sound seem to have been first noticed, apparently accidentally,at the Paris Electrical Exposition of 1881 [1].Ear pieces were provided each fed from a separate carbon microphone.indeed in the absence of amplifiers at that time there was virtually no alternative.The microphones were placed in the neighbouring Opera and the directional effects were noticed when one ear piece was applied to each ear.
