Claudia Fritz, Joseph Curtin, Jacques Poitevineau et al., 2017. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 114, 5395–5400.
Two hall experiments comparing three new violins with three Stradivaris, with and without orchestra. The new violins projected better and were generally preferred, and listeners could not reliably tell new from old.
What it's used for here
The test of the claim that old violins carry better in a hall.
