Whafs delay time?
The sound you hear is composed of sound that comes to your ears
directly from the sound source (direct sound), and sound that is
reflected off the walls, floor, and ceiling of your room (reflected
sound). Reflected sounds arrive at your ears slightly later than the
direct sounds. Delay time is the difference in arrival time between the
direct sound and the reflected sound.
