A speaker system for reproducing a high fidelity sound field. In one embodiment, the speaker system includes at least two speakers, one of which is coupled with a phase shifter for shifting the phase of an audio signal in mid- and high-frequency ranges. The phase shifter shifts the phase between .+-.120.degree. and .+-.180.degree.. In another embodiment, the speaker system includes three speakers and the phase shifter shifts the phase of the audio signal applied to two of the speakers from that of the audio signal applied to the third speaker which is a tweeter.

Speaker system including phase shift such that the composite sound wave

A horn shaped baffle is provided in the front of a loudspeaker. Escape holes are formed in the horn shaped baffle so as to emit sound waves deviated from the axis of the loudspeaker. A sound absorptive panel is provided on the outside of the baffle so as to cover the holes.
