Abstract

In an acoustic apparatus in which a vibrator which drives a Helmholtz resonator having an open port by one surface thereof and directly radiates an acoustic wave from the other surface thereof is arranged in the Helmholtz resonator, the open port is arranged coaxially with the vibrator, and the vibrator is driven to cancel an air counteraction from the resonator when the resonator is driven. According to this construction, the acoustic apparatus can be rendered compact and the clear sound localization can be realized.
