A loudspeaker configuration capable of generating stereophonic sound separation from relatively loudspeaker drivers that are not necessarily widely separated. For example, such a loudspeaker configuration can be used to generate relatively good sound separation from a single chassis, such as a single speaker box, a boom box, a clock radio or the like. This can advantageously save space in many environments. One embodiment uses four mid-tweeter speaker drivers and a bass driver. The four mid-tweeter speaker drivers are arranged facing outward approximately 90 degrees apart from each other. A speaker driver facing the listener reproduces a mid channel signal, for example, L+R. A speaker driver facing away from the listener reproduces the same mid channel signal or a delayed version of the mid channel signal. A left facing speaker reproduces a side channel, for example, L−R. A right facing speaker reproduces a side channel, for example, R−L. The acoustic combination of the sound produced by the four speaker drivers creates a virtual left and right loudspeaker as experienced by the listener.

An image display device (10) has a main display body (1) provided with a thin display unit (2), a low-frequency loudspeaker (woofer) (3) and two middle and high frequency loudspeakers (tweeters) (4a, 4b) and a stand (8) supporting the main display body (1). The stand (8) has a base (6) being just opposite at its top surface to a duct outlet of the woofer (3) , thereby sound emitted from the duct can be constantly absorbed by and reflected from the base and provided with the stable quality without influence of the floor's material. A housing containing the first loudspeaker and a pair of the second loudspeakers has a plurality of through holes formed in a first area corresponding to an aperture of each loudspeaker (3, 4a, 4b) and a plurality of blind holes formed in a second area surrounding the first area, wherein the second area for the first loudspeaker is different in peripheral shape and/or size from the second area for each of the second pair of loudspeakers. The above arrangement can attain an improved sound field expanding effect by using one woofer and two tweeters, attaining the sophisticated design of the loudspeaker system.

An apparatus, system, and method for an entertainment chair provide a high fidelity audio system incorporated in an entertainment chair. The entertainment chair is relatively independent from an acoustical environment in which it is placed, and enables repeatable high fidelity sound with a wide variety of recording types and qualities. The entertainment chair has high transparency and excellent imaging. Mid-range speakers and/or tweeters are placed in or near the armrests, forward of the seat occupant, and are oriented to face inward and upward. In one embodiment the mid-range and/or tweeters also angle rearward. A subwoofer is placed in the backrest and a shaker is placed in the seat bottom. The subwoofer and shaker are separately tunable through a control panel ergonomically placed at a forward end of an arm rest. The control panel includes a universal iPod dock. Other inputs may also be connected to the entertainment chair.

A coincident source stereo speaker in accordance with the present invention includes a high-frequency component (tweeter) and a low-frequency component (woofer) that are separated by a sound channel. The tweeter emits a first sound pattern directly outward from the speaker, with the sound pattern having a corresponding high frequency center axis. The sound channel is located between the tweeter and woofer and is symmetrically oriented around the high-frequency component. The woofer emits a second sound pattern into the sound channel for re-direction out of the speaker. With this configuration, the second sound pattern has an effective low frequency center axis that is coincident with the high frequency center axis. As a result, the tweeter and woofer exhibit co-axial performance characteristics, even though they are not physically located co-axially.

The electrically conductive pump/transducer includes an array of electrically conductive membrane pumps that combine to generate a desired sound by moving a membrane (such as a membrane of PDMS), a piston, and/or by the use of pressurized airflow in the absence of such a membrane or piston. The electrically conductive membranes in the array can be, for example, graphene-polymer membranes. The electrically conductive pump can include mid-range, tweeter, and sub-woofer speakers.

A multi-drive in-ear headset including moving-coil bass comprises a housing. The housing has at least one tweeter and a bass driver. The sound waves emitted by the bass driver pass through a second-order acoustic low-pass filter consisting of a cavity and a small hole on the back of the diaphragm and then through a second second-order acoustics low-pass filter consisting of the housing cavity and the sound guiding tube, and then are fused with the sound waves generated by a high-frequency driver and output to the human ears. The beneficial effects are as follows: 1, the two second-order acoustic low-pass filters are used to attenuate the high-frequency components emitted by the low-frequency driver, and reduce the interference with the sound waves emitted by high-frequency driver; 2, the structure is simple, the headset is conducive to manufacturing, the production cost is lowered, product competition in the market is benefited.
