Weknowthatthesoundpartofaspeakerisaspeaker,butwhyuseaspeakerinsteadoflisteningdirectlytothespeaker?
Thepurposeofthespeakerboxismainlytopreventthesoundwavesignalsonthefrontandbackofthespeakerdiaphragmfromdirectlyformingaloop,causingonlyhigh-frequencyandintermediate-frequencysoundswithasmallwavelengthtobetransmitted.,Andothersoundsignalsaresuperimposedandcancelledout.
Thephysicalmodelofthespeakeristoopenaholeinaninfiniterigidbaffletoinstallthespeaker,soastoensurethatthesoundsignalonthefrontandbackofthespeakerwillnotformaloop,resultinginasoundwaveloop.
Butinactualuse,thespeakerscannotbemadeinfinite.Therefore,peopleusebafflesbehindthespeakerstoformaclosedspacetoensurethefrontaltransmissionofsoundwaves.
Theensuingproblem:afterthespeakerisairtight,duetotheatmosphericpressure,thelargerthespeakercabinet,themoreconducivetotherestorationoflow-frequencysound.Therefore,thevolumeofthegeneralspeakeriscalculatedbasedonthespeakersizeofthemid-bassunitComeoutacompromisedata.

Thefrontmainspeakersofthehometheatersystemareverticalspeakers.Someusebookshelftypeorfloor-standingtype.Thisdependsonthesizeoftheaudio-visualroom,thepoweramplifierpowerandpersonalpreferences.Generally,fortheaudio-visualroombelow15squaremeters,mediumbookshelfspeakersshouldbeused;forroomslessthan10squaremeters,smallbookshelfboxesshouldbeused;forroomslargerthan15squaremeters,mediumbookshelfspeakersorfloor-standingboxesshouldbeselected.Thefrontmainspeakers,centerspeakersandsurroundspeakersaremostlydesignedwithinvertedphases,followedbyairtightand1/4-wavelengthloading,labyrinth,etc.Subwooferspeakersaremostlyband-passanddual-cavitydouble-opening,followedbyinvertedandclosed.
Thefrequencydividerisdividedintopowerfrequencydividerandelectronicfrequencydivider.Themainfunctionsarefrequencybanddivision,amplitude-frequencycharacteristicandphase-frequencycharacteristiccorrection,impedancecompensationandattenuation.
Thepowerdividerisalsocalledpassivepostdivider,whichdividesthefrequencyafterthepoweramplifier.Itismainlycomposedofpassivecomponentssuchasinductors,resistors,capacitorsandotherpassivecomponentstoformafilternetwork,andsendtheaudiosignalsofeachfrequencybandtothespeakersofthecorrespondingfrequencybandforreproduction.Itscharacteristicsarelowproductioncost,simplestructure,suitableforamateurproduction,butlargeinsertionloss,lowefficiency,andpoortransientcharacteristics.
Electronicfrequencydivider,alsoknownasactivepre-frequencydivider,iscomposedofvariousresistance-capacitancecomponentsandactivedevicessuchastransistorsorintegratedcircuits.Itisoftenplacedinpreamplifierandpoweramplifiersignals.Ananalogelectronicfilterinthecircuitcandividetheaudiosignaloutputbythepre-amplifierintodifferentfrequencybands,andthensendittothepoweramplifierforamplificationprocessing.Itscharacteristicisthatthefrequencyspectrumofeachfrequencybandisbalanced,mutualinterferenceissmall,theoutputdynamicrangeislarge,ithasacertainamplificationability,andtheinsertionlossissmall.Butthecircuitcompositionisrelativelycomplicated.
Thefrequencydividercanbedividedintotwofrequencydivisions,threefrequencydivisionsandfourfrequencydivisionsaccordingtothefrequencydivisionfrequencyband.Two-wayfrequencydividestheentirefrequencybandoftheaudiosignalintotwofrequencybands,high-frequencyandlow-frequency;three-wayfrequencydividestheentirefrequencybandintothreefrequencybands,high-frequency,intermediatefrequencyandlow-frequency;four-wayfrequencydividesthethree-wayfrequencyintoonemoreUltralowfrequencyband.

Thecrossoverslope(alsocalledtheattenuationslopeofthefilter)isusedtoreflectthefallingslopeofthefrequencyresponsecurvebelowthecrossoverpoint,expressedindecibels/octave(dB/oct).Itisdividedintofirstorder(6dB/oct),secondorder(12dB/oct),thirdorder(18dB/oct)andfourthorder(24dB/oct).Thehighertheorder,thegreatertheslopeofthefrequencycurveafterthecrossoverpointBig.Themorecommonlyusedisthesecond-ordercrossoverslope.Thehigh-orderfrequencydividercanincreasetheslope,butthephaseshiftislarge;thelow-orderfrequencydividercanproduceasmootherslopeandgoodtransientresponse,buttheamplitude-frequencycharacteristicsarepoor.Decidingtheorderofhighandlowfrequencyfilteringshouldmainlyconsiderthegoodconnectionofthephaseoftheloudspeakeritselfatthecrossoverpoint.

ElectrostaticSpeaker:

Inordertobetterplaybackandrecordtherecordedsound,in1910,S.G.Brownseparatedthedrivingforcefromthediaphragmandinventedthe"armature"armatureheadset.
