After founding Boston Acoustics and achieving success with the company, Petite changed his name back to Kotsatos. The first Boston Acoustics speaker was called the A-100: a floor standing, very wide speaker, designed to minimize diffraction despite its very narrow depth. It was followed by the A150 floor standing speaker, and the A-70.
The "3-2-1 GS" model was introduced in 2003, named for its use of Bose "Gemstones" small speakers, which have two drivers pointing forward and one pointing to the side. [2] [3] The 3-2-1 was replaced by the "321 Series II" in 2004, which included two small speakers and a subwoofer. [4]
Meanwhile, Amazon recently jumped into the fray with its Fire TV Soundbar, a compact model with an attractive $120 price tag. We'll continue to evaluate new models as they're released and update ...
The term loudspeaker may refer to individual transducers (also known as drivers) or to complete speaker systems consisting of an enclosure and one or more drivers.. To adequately and accurately reproduce a wide range of frequencies with even coverage, most loudspeaker systems employ more than one driver, particularly for higher sound pressure level (SPL) or maximum accuracy.
Bose store in Century City Bose store at the Hong Kong International Airport. The company was founded in Massachusetts in 1964 by Amar Bose with angel investor funding, including Amar's thesis advisor and professor, Y. W. Lee. [9] Bose's interest in speaker systems had begun in 1956 when he purchased an audio system and was disappointed with its performance. [10]
Acoustic Research was a Cambridge, Massachusetts-based company that manufactured high-end audio equipment. The brand is now owned by VOXX.Acoustic Research was known for the AR-3 series of speaker systems, which used the 12 in (300 mm) acoustic suspension woofer of the AR-1 with newly designed dome mid-range speaker and high-frequency drivers.
Diffusion, in architectural acoustics, is the spreading of sound energy evenly in a given environment. A perfectly diffusive sound space is one in which the reverberation time is the same at any listening position. Most interior spaces are non-diffusive; the reverberation time is considerably different around the room.
An equivalent four terminal model which splits the downstream and upstream waves is used. This eases the introduction of physically measurable acoustic characteristics, reflection coefficients , material constants of insulation material, the influence of air velocity on wavelength (Mach number), etc.
