ABSTRACT:
A loudspeaker having uniform horizontal sound dispersion characteristics in a design angle and minimal sound dispersion vertically comprises multiple sound energy sources forming an elongated line source of sound energy, and a waveguide having an elongated input portion coextensive with the elongated line source and substantially planar side walls defining an expanding cross-section from the input portion to an exit aperture, whereby sound dispersion in a direction parallel to the line source is minimized. The waveguide expands substantially only in a direction perpendicular to the line source, the rectangular input portion having substantially the same dimension as the exit aperture measured in the direction parallel to the line source.
