Abstract:
A multi-way speaker array is disclosed that includes rings of transducers of different types. The rings of transducers may encircle the cabinet of the speaker array such that the speaker array is rotationally symmetric. The distance between rings of transducers may be based on a logarithmic scale. By separating rings of transducers using logarithmic spacing, denser transducer spacing at short wavelengths is achieved while limiting the number of transducers needed for longer wavelengths by spacing them in larger and larger logarithmic increments. Transducers with overlapping frequency ranges may be used in the speaker array to avoid initial dips or shortfalls in directivity for corresponding beam patterns.

Claim (Index 34):
The multi-way speaker array of  claim 33 , wherein the third transducer is arranged on an end of the cabinet and pointed in the direction of the center axis perpendicular to the rotationally symmetrical ring of transducers and the second ring of transducers.
