The 1925 paper [1] of Chester W. Rice and Edward W. Kellogg, fueled by advances in radio and electronics, increased interest in direct radiator loudspeakers. In 1930, A. J. Thuras of Bell Labs patented (US Patent No. 1869178) his "Sound Translating Device" (essentially a vented box) which was evidence of the interest in many types of enclosure design at the time.
A loudspeaker enclosure or loudspeaker cabinet is an enclosure (often rectangular box-shaped) in which speaker drivers (e.g., loudspeakers and tweeters) and associated electronic hardware, such as crossover circuits and, in some cases, power amplifiers, are mounted.
A loudspeaker enclosure based on the concept was proposed in October 1965 by Dr A.R. Bailey in Wireless World magazine, referencing a production version of an acoustic-line enclosure design from Radford Electronics Ltd. [16] The article postulated that energy from the rear of a driver unit could be essentially absorbed, without damping the cone ...
Subwoofer enclosures come in a variety of designs, including bass reflex (with a port or vent), using a subwoofer and one or more passive radiator speakers in the enclosure, acoustic suspension (sealed enclosure), infinite baffle, horn-loaded, tapped horn, transmission line, bandpass or isobaric designs. Each design has unique trade-offs with ...
Isobaric loudspeaker in a cone-to-magnet (in-phase) arrangement. The image above shows a sealed enclosure; vented enclosures may also use the isobaric scheme. Two identical loudspeakers are coupled to work together as one unit: they are mounted one behind the other in a casing to define a sealed chamber of air in between them. The volume of ...
The design process starts by entering the dimensions of the room and the required sound pressure level. The program then suggests the number and arrangement of boxes. Alternatively, some programs require the number of boxes entered and it will predict the resulting sound pressure levels in different parts of the room.
