ABSTRACT:
A loudspeaker assembly with a transducer capable of being swiveled to direct the sound to a convenient point thereby allowing the listener to select the optimal direction of sound. The assembly comprises a unique design which prevents the transducer from dropping below the plane of the speaker's baffle, thereby eliminating diffraction of sound waves which arise when sound radiates off the sharp edge of the cavity wall upon rotation of the transducer. The assembly allows a listener to adjust a transducer, such as the high-range frequency tweeter component of an in-wall speaker to his liking, without the need to remove and/or re-install the speaker in the wall. The assembly is equally adaptable to the interior of a vehicle or for use as a free-standing floor speaker. The assembly provides a unique speaker with a pivoting transducer which provides quality, multi-directional sound, free from any distortion created by the diffraction of sound waves.
