  • Patent number: 7602934
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a satellite speaker system wherein the horn mouth of a main speaker, typically of a folded horn design, is divided by braces into satellite speaker storage chambers. This allows the satellite speakers to be placed into the storage chambers for storage and transportation, and then easily removed and placed into their remote locations for a show, performance or gig.
