I give you a quote from the answer at one of my old questions.
So the conclusion is that a book on acoustics and one with quantum theory are both needed.

The only time I could see quantum effects coming into play with "sound" is in super dense bodies such as neutron stars, black holes, and posssibly regular stars. I'm not sure you would be able to call it "sound" though. It's more along the lines of vibrations through the material in question. With vibration in less dense media, such as air, you get sound from that without any quantum interactions. It's all about thermodynamics and pv=nRT at the molecular level. Once you get into super dense materials where the atoms are literally crammed together by the force of gravity, I'm sure quantum effects would be prevalent in a vibration through the material. I have no idea what they would be though.

Sound is a disturbance. Like a stone tossed into the water the wave of disbursement is echoed in the sine. It radiates in all directions. In the water we see ripples, mirror the image and the trinity of the solid, liquids & gas are all "one" In the Quantum: The Atom is of the Trinity, Negative & Positive (Electron, Protron & Neutron). The Enegy is equal in all three. What is not seen is the power of AND, the helix (&). It is the 7th key on your key board and the day of rest as in the Genises of creation. Sound can not be seen, yet it can be felt, it is energy and as such it is of the Quantrum. The atom can not be seen, yet it is.

Quantum physics gave the idea that light energy is in waves as well as matter some backbone. Sound is energy that travels in waves but according to the Quantum theory, such a wave can only be made to exist if it also followed the string theory. Such sound waves of energy travel in packets and as waves. blah blah blah very boring.

Conventional sound waves act on collections of atoms and molecules which leads to dimensions (measuring dimensions) that are so large that quantum affects can be ignored.

source myself
remember quantam leep the tv series?
well the whole thery on the traveling is you yourself can move in time somwhere through time holes and see and be part of another time, palce etc
