Hello again,
I am wondering where I might find some basic info on the subject of acoustics. I have some books that I plan on reading, but I was just wondering if anyone knows of any online sources. I have already done a search for acoustics here but not any luck :rolleyes: Anyways, I would also like to hear your comments on the books I have choosen:

"Basic Acoustics" by Donald E. Hall
- this is copyrighted in 1993 so I think it's fairly up-to-date..

"The Theory of Sound" by J. W. S. Rayleigh
- this is the first volume of two...it's the unabridged version

That's the two I have so far..I got them from two different libraries and I have about a month to read both...

Also, if you have any tips that you wish to submit pertaining to acoustics, just give a hollar...I'll be gladly listening
 
Physics news on Phys.org
anyone? I would like advice, but it's okay if no one has any advice concerning this...
 
I can't offer any advice bent. But there does seem to be some fairly good stuff on the web. For example this one has animations:
