Abstract

A device and a method are provided for producing a sound field are disclosed. The device comprises a plurality of loudspeakers arranged at a plurality of locations within a plane and a processing circuitry configured to drive the plurality of loudspeakers. A first subset of the plurality of loudspeakers defines a first rhombus within the plane and a second subset of the plurality of loudspeakers defines a second rhombus within the plane. The first rhombus is oriented substantially perpendicular to the second rhombus. Further subsets of the plurality of loudspeakers may define further rhombic sub-arrays.
