Abstract
A modular audio loudspeaker array system. The system includes a first speaker module, and a second speaker module, constructed and arranged to radiate sound waves responsive to audio signals. Sound waves radiated by the first speaker module and the sound waves radiated by the second speaker module combine to form a radiation pattern. The system further includes a positioning system, for positioning the first bass module relative to the second bass module at a plurality of fixed predetermined distances; an audio signal input terminal electronically for coupling the loudspeaker array to a source of the audio signals for receiving the audio signals; an audio signal processing device, electronically coupling the audio signal input terminal to the first bass module and to the second bass module, for processing the audio signals and transmitting the audio signals to the first speaker module and to the second loudspeaker module. The audio signal processing device is constructed and arranged to apply a first signal processing parameter value to the audio signals transmitted to the first loudspeaker module and a second signal processing parameter value to the audio signals transmitted to the second loudspeaker module so that the first parameter value and the second parameter value differ by a parameter value difference. The system further includes a processing parameter selection device, comprising a plurality of preset indicators, each of the preset indicators corresponding to a predetermined parameter value difference, wherein the predetermined parameter value difference and a one of the plurality of predetermined distances corresponds to a predetermined radiation pattern.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
