ABSTRACT:
A transportable sound reproduction system for transducing binaurally encoded signals with near-field reproduction including a support, a head locator attached to the support for positioning a listener's head at a desired location in the near-field, and a pair of speakers located close to and forward of the desired location of the listener's head. A carrying case for transporting the system has protective packaging with compartments for detachably securing the components of the system.
