Speaker system method and apparatus

An improved speaker arrangement concealed in a room, the improvement comprising:

• a. a speaker system comprising a base frame having rearward portions and speaker frame portions,
• b. a reciprocating portion having a peripheral region mounted to the speaker frame portions, and a driver adapted to move the reciprocating portion,
• c. an active member formed of a hardened fibrous material having a perimeter region mounted to the base frame where the active member has an outer surface and an inward surface where the inward surface of the active member has a high-frequency region and further where the inward surface, the base frame, and the reciprocating portion define an acoustic chamber adapted to transmit energy from the reciprocating portion to the active member,
• d. a high-frequency system where a high-frequency element positioned within the acoustic chamber and having a driver portion and a base region where the driver portion is mounted to a high-frequency reciprocating area of the active region and the base region is mounted to a non high-frequency reciprocating area of the in-wall speaker system.

An improved method of producing a speaker system, the method comprising the steps of:

• a. receiving a visual image;
• b. reproducing a first portion of the visual image onto the face of an active member of the speaker system;
• c. wherein the active member is formed of a hardened fibrous material;
• and
• d. reproducing a video graphic image of a second portion of the visual image to be displayed on an electronic video projection apparatus.
