Check out the links on this page for a start, though not a lot on auditorium
acoustics.

No ebooks directly and not directly auditoriums but a wealth of
practical, and only slightly commercially biased information is in the
various papers, pdf files etc at www.rpginc.com They are not in any one
place, so you have to dig through the entire site. Also B&K and some
great material in their tutorials, or whatever tehy call them at
BKS&V.com. Again, the right price.

Afet digesting those documents a google search for Cox, D'Antonio,
Beranek, Farina will give more leads.

Enjoy!

Hi Andre,
I was looking for some books to download immediately, and not having to
buy them online.
I intend to stick to a low budget, haven't got too much dough now.
thanks

Sorry I don't have the exact titles but you amazon them. Is that a new
verb "amazon?"

Beranek: "Concert Hall Acoustics"
The title says it all.

Cox and D'Antonio: "Absorbers, Reflectors, and Diffusers"
Actually quite relevant as diffusion vecomes applicable in larg spaces.

Everest: "Master Handbook of Acoustics"
A good beginner to intermediate text on ostly studio acoustics, but
provieds good explanations of theories. laws. concepts, etc.

Hope this helps!

Hi Noral,
Thanks for the links.
I'm looking for ebooks to learn about architechural and mainly
auditorium acoustics.
I have only an inkling of knowledge in this field, and i'm interested
in going for my higher studies in this field.

I'm doing my graduation in computer science engg., not by choice.
But i do intend to do some projects, minor and major in acoustics.
I also want to do my masters in acoustics, in some foreign university,
and for that, i want build an appropriate base for myself based on
impressive projects and study. No one's gonna consider taking a
computer engg. otherwise.
I need help.

Also, if u have any contacts and people who know what could help me it
would be great.
thanks a ton

Probably not going to find much. Perhaps something like this is what you
are looking for.
