Abstract:
1. A loudspeaker enclosure that substantially minimizes standing waves and diffracted wave multiplications comprising: an interior enclosure surface, shaped such that any cross section taken of it comprises a looped, substantially continuously curved, non-rational B spline; a rear enclosure surface, the rear enclosure surface being shaped substantially the same as the interior enclosure surface and offset from the interior enclosure by a wall thickness; an outer baffle surface, the outer baffle surface comprising slightly varying curvatures such that substantially any cross section taken of it comprises a continuously curved, non-rational B spline and a flat surface shaped such that at least one loudspeaker driver may be mounted to it; a loudspeaker driver; mounted to the flat surface; and, a rounded edge surface, whereby substantially every cross section taken along it has a slightly different continuously curved, non-rational B spline, whereby a line tangent to it does not intersect the flat surface.
