Patent ID: 6973994

Claim:
An apparatus for increasing the quality of sound from an acoustic source by improving the range of bass sounds produced by the acoustic source, said apparatus comprising: an acoustic guide having a first end and a second end, said acoustic guide in the shape of a double helix; a hollow enclosure substantially surrounding said acoustic guide, said hollow enclosure having a first open end and a second open end; a pair of acoustic inlet openings defined by said first end of said acoustic guide, said pair of acoustic inlet openings receptive to the admission of acoustic waves; and a pair of acoustic exit openings defined by said second end of said acoustic guide, each one of said pair of acoustic exit openings in communication with each one of said pair of acoustic inlet openings, respectively; a pair of acoustic paths defined by said acoustic guide, said pair of acoustic paths positioned intermediate of said pair of acoustic inlet openings and said pair of acoustic exit openings; and an acoustic source secured to said first open end of said enclosure, said acoustic source spaced apart longitudinally from said acoustic guide; wherein each one of said acoustic paths is mutually exclusive of the other and promotes unidirectional travel of the acoustic waves; wherein said pair of acoustic inlet openings separate acoustic waves emanating from the acoustic source and direct the acoustic waves to said pair of acoustic exit openings.
