Abstract
Possible explanations of the often reported systematic deviations
between the results of conventional and intensity-based
measurements of sound transmission loss are examined. Both the
conventional diffuse-field method and the method based on
measurement of sound intensity are subject to several fairly small
but systematic errors of comparable size. The errors are more or
less under the control of the experimenter. It is concluded that
with very careful measurement procedures there are no systematic
deviations between the two methods of determining transmission
loss.
