These technologies are derived from a profound understanding of bending wave physics and its applications to sound generation.<br /><br />Traditional speakers act like a piston, pumping air with a rigid cone. NXT speakers are different. A transducer is used to excite a carefully designed panel, which vibrates, & converts the mechanical energy into sound pressure waves over the entire surface area. It is the same principle that makes an acoustic guitar or violin make its sound.<br /><br />An additional characteristic is that the sound volume does not decay over distance like a standard speaker. This allows users to set a volume that is comfortable whilst they are sitting close to the unit while also being sufficient to fill the whole room with sound.<br /><br />A powerful, vertical-firing, bass sub woofer adds a depth and richness only found in larger, high-specification, hi-fi systems.</span><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuxqK0_stm3GmBzKlAqcMlZSWdkJR6zhj-oA7oWvak8ySD5Yi2bAzb4KtffV1X8aGRJJuC5xVWsfUsmNq3U6p5Xn8DzkONyUs5ImAR5QP8_uk5-A7v9oxDj-ill_qEpcv17C39lCW2hhwp/s1600-h/Picture+40.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271916300062975922" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuxqK0_stm3GmBzKlAqcMlZSWdkJR6zhj-oA7oWvak8ySD5Yi2bAzb4KtffV1X8aGRJJuC5xVWsfUsmNq3U6p5Xn8DzkONyUs5ImAR5QP8_uk5-A7v9oxDj-ill_qEpcv17C39lCW2hhwp/s400/Picture+40.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 537px; height: 256px;" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">About airsound technology:</span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">It works by using small side firing speakers to reproduce spatial information contained within a stereo input signal.

The average consumer deliberated between JBL or Kenwood while the audiophile went for Cambridge Soundworks, Harman Kardon or Bang & Olufsen. Besides wattage output, your biggest deciding factor was whether or not you wanted wood paneled speakers or all black.<br /><br />Well, boy has that changed. Speakers are no longer even called "speakers". Now they are 'loudspeakers' or 'sound systems' or even referred to as 'audio output devices.' Made from stainless steel, glass, acrylic, ceramic and more, speakers of every shape and size are popping up. Whether they are floor standing, shelf-sitting, or wall mounted, there's no shortage of unusual designs from which to choose.<br /><br />Technologically, they are far superior than decades ago. And rather than bog down this blog with technical specs, let me simply share with you some of the designs. Some beautiful, some ....butt ugly. And give you links to the manufacturers so you can drool over the details on your own time.<br /><br />Let's start with one of the most blogged about speakers (myself included) that were an expected hit at this year's CES.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg30pBTNm3vcNbCAXjP35oKSRSho5GhPSvt4zwRYYlIZoZztAI0crI3i2Drug616UjXO6dEMi6YaBToJKTi1cYjzMNxWSAwRdX3uttbZBg_cOoJsnID-gHZoPrw1r-xOdI4Q8iArm6jry1/s1600-h/Picture+25.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286027995144798178" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg30pBTNm3vcNbCAXjP35oKSRSho5GhPSvt4zwRYYlIZoZztAI0crI3i2Drug616UjXO6dEMi6YaBToJKTi1cYjzMNxWSAwRdX3uttbZBg_cOoJsnID-gHZoPrw1r-xOdI4Q8iArm6jry1/s400/Picture+25.png" style="cursor: pointer;
