Abstract
There is provided a sound system comprising: a first reflector arranged overhead and to reflect sound into a listening environment, a sound emitting device comprising a sound source and a second reflector, the sound source being configured to direct a sound beam with a first beam angle into the second reflector, the sound emmiting device being any of a horn or parabolic loudspeaker. The second reflector is shaped to reflect the sound beam with a second beam angle towards the first reflector, and the first reflector is shaped such as it reflects the sound beam back to the listening environment with a third beam angle. The second beam angle is less than the first beam angle, and the third beam angle is greater than the second beam angle. There is further provided a sound system wherein three of more reflectors are used to reflect sound back down to the listening environment. Additionally, at least one sound absorbing device of a three dimensional shape is positioned in between the overhead reflectors.
