Abstract
An omni-directional acoustic deflector includes an acoustically reflective body that has a truncated conical shape which includes a substantially conical outer surface that is configured to be disposed adjacent an acoustically radiating surface (e.g., a diaphragm) of an acoustic driver thereby to define an acoustic radiation path therebetween. The acoustically reflective body is profiled such that a cross-sectional area of the acoustic radiation path increases monotonically with respect to radial distance from a motion axis of the acoustic driver.
