Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012168849A1] In a speaker arrangement, a first sound transducer (101) reproduces sound in a lower frequency range and has a first on-axis direction (109). A second sound transducer (103) reproduces sound in the lower frequency range and has a second on-axis direction (111). A third sound transducer (103) reproduces sound in a higher frequency range and has a third on-axis direction (113). The third sound transducer (105) is positioned between the first sound transducer (101) and the second sound transducer (103). Furthermore, a first angle between the first on-axis direction (109) and the second on-axis direction (111) is between 20° and 120°; and a second angle between the first on-axis direction (109) and the third on- axis direction (111) is less than the first angle. The arrangement may render sound with a wide sound stage and may provide a good approximation to a point source.
