| 摘 要： | The electro-pneumatic loudspeaker has been used widely as a sound source of high intensity noise.Investigation in this paper shows that by suitably increasing the upper limit frequency of the soundsource it can be used as a broadcasting sound source to reproduce speech and music.The acousticpower output of the sound source developed is 2000W;the power output at l000Hz deviates less than4 dB from the highest power output in its frequency range.The intelligibility of sentences recordedword for word at 5.8 km distance from the single sound source is 56%.And for an array of foursources,the intelligibility of sentences recorded word for word is 58% at 8.7 km from the soundsource,and 32% at l0.2 km from the sound source.The subjective rating for short passages isnearly intelligible at 8.7 km from the sound source,and less intelligible at 10.2 km from the soundsource.The experimental results show that the obtained intelligibility is dependent on the educa-tional level and the sense of responsibility of the list
