ABSTRACT:
The loudspeaker and method provide a driver of a loudspeaker that is movable parallel to an axis of movement through a center of the driver to produce sound waves. The driver is aligned with the driver plane orthogonal to the axis of movement. The driver plane is at a non-zero acute angle to a support plane. A reflector is mounted facing a diaphragm of the driver for reflecting sound waves from the driver. The reflector is configured relative to the driver such that reflected sound energy is greatest in a selected direction from a front of the reflector and the driver, and diminishes a progressively larger angle from the selected direction. The selected direction diverges from the driver plane.
