Abstract	Dynamic SoundField is a new generation soundfield technology with automated settings and a specially designed loudspeaker array for even distribution of the teacher’s voice in a classroom. In this study, teachers at a primary school in New Zealand, used Dynamic SoundField in their classrooms for an average of two months. They then each completed a questionnaire of 13 targeted questions with a response rate of 100%. The teachers reported a significant improvement in student performance when using Dynamic SoundField, their own vocal strain was reduced, it was quieter in class, the equipment was easy to use and the sound quality was highly rated. These results were indicative of high Dynamic SoundField acceptance by the teachers. The data complement the objective significant improvements in speech understanding in noise by normal hearing students, as reported in a previous edition of Field Study News.
