Abstract

The present invention is a two-way loudspeaker that has the following three features: - a horn tweeter (2) with a narrow sound dispersion in a vertical plane so mounted that its reference axis of radiation is angled at between 10 and 40 degrees respective to the horizontal surface; - a bass/midrange unit (3) mounted close to the bottom surface of the loudspeaker so that its acoustic center is less than 63 mm off this bottom surface; - a crossover circuit with a crossover frequency lower than the first minimum in the resultant frequency response of the bass/midrange loudspeaker that comes as a result of the interference between the direct sound wave and the sound wave reflected from a surface on which the loudspeaker is placed. This loudspeaker exhibits a flat frequency response both when standing on a desk or when located in free space. All other known multimedia loudspeakers (intended to stand on a desk) suffer from interference between the direct sound wave and the sound wave reflected from the surface on which the loudspeakers are located, interference which results in an uneven frequency response.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS received by the International Bureau on 20 August 2004 : claims 2, 3, 4 have been added.
1. MULTIMEDIA LOUDSPEAKER is a two-way loudspeaker, characterized by:
- its being intended to stand on the substantially horizontal desk surface;
- a horn tweeter with a narrow sound dispersion in a vertical plane, so mounted that its referent axis of radiation is angled respective to the substantially horizontal desk surface;
- a bass/midrange unit placed close to the bottom surface of the loudspeaker enclosure so that its acoustic center is located close to the substantially horizontal desk surface;
- a crossover circuit with a crossover frequency lower than the frequency ofthe first minimum in the resultant frequency response ofthe bass/midrange loudspealcer, which minimum is a result of the interference between the direct sound wave and the sound wave reflected from the desk surface.
2. A loudspeaker according to claim 1, comprising a horn tweeter with sound dispersion less than 55 degrees in a vertical plane, so mounted that its referent axis of radiation is angled between 10 and 40 degrees respective to the substantially horizontal desk surface.
3. A loudspeaker according to claims 1 and 2, comprising a bass/midrange unit which is placed close to the bottom surface ofthe loudspeaker enclosure so that its acoustic center is located at height less than 63 mm from the substantially horizontal desk surface.
4. A loudspeaker according to claims 1 to 3, comprising a crossover circuit with a crossover frequency between 1100 Hz and 3600 Hz, wherein said crossover frequency is lower than the frequency of the first minimum in the resultant frequency response of the bass/midrange loudspeaker, which minimum is a result ofthe interference between the direct sound wave and the sound wave reflected from the desk surface.
