How Stratasys 3D Printing Completely Turned Around Stereo Speaker Acoustics
You can’t solve an 80-year-old problem with 80-year-old technology. Take stereo speakers, for example. Conventionally designed and manufactured speakers almost universally suffer from some level of “back wave” distortion; this occurs when the audio signals fired to the back of the speaker bounce off the cabinet walls and interfere with the signals sent to the front of the speaker. In the 3D printed Aleph1 speaker design, sound travels in a perpetual self-feeding loop, preventing [...]
