MANIFOLD FOR A HORN LOUDSPEAKER

摘要

A manifold for a horn loudspeaker has an input end having at least one input port for receiving acoustic power from at least one acoustic driver, and an output end for delivering acoustic power to the throat end of the horn. The output end of the manifold has at least two and suitably multiple output ports. An acoustic power waveguide is provided for each output port and connects each of the output ports to the input port of the manifold. Acoustic power received by the input port is divided between the acoustic waveguides such that it is delivered to the aligned output ports to simulate a line array of acoustic power sources.
