Abstract
This paper describes a group of directional baffle loud speakers that are designed to combine high efficiency of transformation of electrical into acoustical energy, with directional characteristics that are particularly adapted to large-scale reproduction of sound with good fidelity. Three types of directional baffle loud speakers have been designed, each satisfying a certain set of requirements. The 60-inch directional baffle covers an extremely large frequency range and is designed for theaters with good acoustic characteristics. The 37-inch directional baffle is designed to compensate for the acoustics of theaters with high reverberation characteristics. The 25-inch directional baffle is designed for theaters in which the space behind the screen is extremely limited. Response measurements show that the output of these loud speakers is uniform over a wide frequency band. The uniform directional characteristics of these loud speakers eliminate the possibility of frequency discrimination for points removed from the axis. These loud speakers, due to the high efficiency and rugged construction, are capable of delivering large acoustic outputs without distortion.
