B&O Tech: Loudspeaker Enclosures

#105 in a series of articles about the technology behind Bang & Olufsen loudspeakers

I’ve started working with a number of my colleagues on a series of videos for internal training at Bang & Olufsen. They were kind enough to make some of these videos publicly available.

This video explains why loudspeaker drivers are typically put in enclosures (boxes), the three types of enclosures that we use (sealed, ported, and passive radiators), and the differences in impact that these enclosure types have on the loudspeaker’s behaviour.
