Abstract

A loudspeaker system for use with a stereo system having right R and left L signal outputs, has a right main speaker and right sub-speaker, and a left main speaker and left sub-speaker. Inter-speaker cabling means, which connect to the R and L signal outputs, apply an R signal to the right main speaker and an R-L signal to the right sub-speaker, as well as an L signal to the left main speaker and an L-R signal to the left sub-speaker. The inter-speaker cabling means includes impedances for substantially attenuating the -R portion of the L-R signal and the -L portion of the R-L signal for signal frequencies below approximately 200 Hz.
