1. A stereo sound system for reproducing signals from two indlependent channels, comprising:
- right and left speakers;
center means for summing in phase and attenuating the acoustic outputs of said right and left speaker and radiating said summed attenuated signals; and
right and left acoustic tunnels having input ends facing at least a portion of said right and left speakers respectively and sound issuing ends located on the right and left sides respectively of said center means, said tunnels delaying signals propagating from said input ends to said sound issuing ends.

Abstract
A stereo sound system for reproducing signals from two independent channels through right and left speakers. The two speakers are centrally located and propagate a lesser part of their acoustic output directly into free space. Two acoustic tunnels separately couple the major part of the outputs of the respective speakers and have their issuing ends far removed on either side of the speakers. The tunnels provide advantageous delay.

4. A stereo sound system for reproducing signals from two independent channels, comprising:
-
a right speaker;
p1 a left speaker closely adjacent said right speaker;a right acoustic tunnel with a sound issuing end situated substantially to the right of said right speaker; right acoustic dividing means for dividing the acoustic output of said right speaker between said right tunnel and that radiated directly from said right-speaker; a left acoustic tunnel with a sound issuing end situated substantially to the left of said left speaker; and left acoustic dividing means for dividing the acoustic output of said left speaker between said left tunnel and radiated directly from said left speaker. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7)
