ABSTRACT:
A loudspeaker enclosure is formed generally in the shape of a tetrahedron, having a triangular bottom panel and three upstanding triangular side panels. In a first embodiment, the lower edges of the three side panels are connected to the three edges of the bottom panel, and the upstanding edges of the side panels are connected together. One or more speakers are mounted in respective apertures formed through the front side panel of the enclosure such that the sound waves generated thereby are directed forwardly therefrom. Another speaker is supported within the enclosure facing generally downwardly, but is angled toward the front side panel of the enclosure. The sound waves generated by the downwardly facing speaker are emitted through an opening formed through the lower end of the front side panel. In a second embodiment, the side panels of the enclosure are connected together as above, but are supported above the bottom panel of the enclosure by a plurality of legs so as to define an open space extending about the bottom panel. The downwardly facing speaker faces directly downwardly toward the bottom panel, and the sound waves generated thereby are emitted through the open space around the enclosure.
