Abstract
The present invention features a high-quality audio frequency loudspeaker system utilizing an array of tweeters placed in vertical alignment along an axis. The tweeter array, containing a plurality of tweeters, is mounted on a tweeter baffle board which may be reoriented by a user, so that the speaker system may be positioned in either a horizontal or a vertical orientation relative to the floor or other supporting surface. Reorientation of the tweeter array, in conjunction with other novel features, allows the speaker system to meet horizontal and vertical radiation pattern specifications for home theaters.
