Abstract
A loudspeaker system for use in stereo sound reproduction which is adapted to reflect all higher frequency sounds off a reflecting surface before the sounds reach a listener. The system comprises two enclosures, each having two compartments. The lower compartment houses the woofer; the upper compartment contains at least two arrays of at least two acoustic speakers, each array being positioned vertically relative to each other and projecting in the same general direction. The arrays are positioned in the enclosure such that the arrays project at a moderately divergent angle relative to each other and are spaced at least one array width from each other. The portion of the enclosure between the arrays is essentially pervious to sound and thus permits sound generated by the speakers which has been reflected from the reflecting surface to pass through the enclosure.
