Abstract

A compact acoustic apparatus in which a vibrator is arranged in a Helmholtz resonator having a resonance port, and is driven to radiate a resonant acoustic wave so as to perform lower bass sound reproduction, is characterized in that a cabinet is reduced in size by externally projecting the resonance port from the cabinet, and/or a boundary condition change buffer means is arranged at an opening portion of the resonance port to prevent noise caused by an air flow flowing through the resonance port.
