Abstract: A speaker system and related method for making the same include a rigid, cylindrically shaped body member with opposite ends and a hollow interior which defines a sound chamber. A base is connected with one end of the body member to support the speaker system within a building room. A high-range speaker is mounted in the sound chamber, with a diaphragm portion located within a first radial opening in the body member to direct high-range sound radially toward the listener. A bass port is mounted in a second radial opening in the body member opposite the high-range speaker, and directs low-range sound in the sound chamber radially toward the listener. A head is mounted on the end of the body member opposite the base member, and includes a mid-bass speaker with a diaphragm oriented axially outwardly, so that sound emitted therefrom is directed axially onto the surfaces of the room to naturally equalize the output of the speaker system.
