Abstract: A sound system with upfiring speakers and a redirecting baffle is shown and described. Upfiring speakers simulate overhead speakers by using a ceiling to reflect sound toward the listener from above the listener's head. However, in rooms with high ceilings, such reflection is not practical. The redirecting baffle is spaced apart from the upfiring speakers along a height axis and is oriented downward so that a surface normal to the baffle is neither parallel to nor perpendicular to the floor. By adjusting the angle of orientation, the location at which the reflected sound quality is best can be adjusted toward or away from the upfiring speakers. The system is particularly useful for in-store displays as many stores have ceiling heights that make sound reflection from an upfiring speaker impractical.
