Abstract
An acoustical reproducing apparatus is disclosed for high fidelity sound reproduction comprising a speaker unit in combination with a cabinet enclosure acting as a resonating chamber. The resonating chamber has a rhombic dodecahedron configuration having speaker-mounting openings located on two or more opposed rhombi, or with one or more corner thereof being truncated and terminated in a baffle plate having an opening for mounting the speaker unit, or with one or more elongated or shortened zone and provided with either of the foregoing means of mounting speaker units. The resonating chamber includes a plurality of rhombus-shaped and/or parallelogram-shaped panels.

In an acoustical reproducing apparatus having a resonating chamber and a speaker means mounted in said resonating chamber, the improvement comprising:
- said resonating chamber including a plurality of parallelogram-shaped panels,
- each said parallelogram-shaped panel having pairs of opposed corner angles of approximately 70.degree. and 110.degree.,
- each said parallelogram-shaped panel disposed in a plane forming an approximate 120.degree. angle with each of the adjacent said rhombus-shaped panels,
- each said parallelogram-shaped panel being formed of relatively thin substantially non-sound absorbing material and having an interior surface which is planar and unpadded.
