The chapter about headphones in the 2nd edition is very valuable. It makes you think why it has been removed from the 3rd edition. There are some computer codes for some calculations in the second edition also. On the other hand this is an updated version in many ways therefore it is still a great book in this area of acoustics.

References of that sort are seldom found. Perhaps not really suited for direct design application, it however provides extremely diverse information and insight into the different technologies for making loudspeakers and ways other components in the audio path interact with them. The bass-reflex principles and passive baffle for example are explained quite precisely and concisely. Surprisingly though, I didn't see a mention of the semi-active baffle, where a short circuited loudspeaker is used as the secondary vibrating body. The chapter on headphones however is unique. I don't know of a better presentation in a book reference format, than this one.
