Speaker apparatus

Abstract

A speaker apparatus comprises a speaker unit, a cabinet for forming an internal space on the rear side of the speaker unit with a plurality of wall surfaces including a baffle plate for use in mounting the speaker unit, a acoustic tube which is formed along at least one wall surface out of the plurality of wall surfaces and has not only a substantially uniform hollow section but also an opening at one end, and an acoustical material for separating the internal space from the internal space of the acoustic tube by closing the opening of the acoustic tube. The speaker apparatus is characterized in that the acoustic tube has a tube length about 1/(2n) (n=positive integer) time as large as a wavelength corresponding to the lowest resonance mode of the standing wave produced along the one wall surface out of the standing waves produced in the internal space and that the opening is disposed close to the node of the standing wave.
