Abstract (en)

A low frequency loudspeaker for reproducing the lowest frequency range in a multi-band sound reinforcement system comprises an enclosure (8 to 13) with a front port (14). Drive units (1, 2) are mounted on baffles (3, 4) which divide the enclosure (8-13) into sealed chambers (5, 7) behind the drive units (1, 2) and a chamber (6) which vents through the port (14) but is otherwise sealed. The drive units (1, 2) point generally away from the port (14). The chamber (6) extends smoothly backwards from the port (14) and the cross-sectional area of the chamber (6) perpendicular to the direction (17) of sound emission from the port (14) increases continuously with distance from the port (14). <IMAGE>
