Abstract

See full text

A multi-channel loudspeaker enclosure and display support stand incorporates left speaker system and right speaker system integrally in a winged center channel enclosure 16. The multi-channel “winged” loudspeaker system enclosure includes a plurality of loudspeaker drivers mounted within baffles defining a plurality of compartments or sub-enclosures. The loudspeaker system enclosure has “wings” projecting laterally from a central pedestal support. The wings define bottom surfaces which provide a virtually invisible location for down-firing left and right side mid-bass drivers 601, 620, 640 (see, e.g., FIG. 12). In the multi-channel “winged” loudspeaker system of the present invention, the center channel speaker units, left channel speaker units and right channel speaker units each include one or more speaker drivers configured and driven to provide superior acoustic summation with the down-firing midbass drivers and with an optional subwoofer placed in a separate enclosure configured as a pedestal support.
