In a former life I had some editing experience when my dad had a printing business...
What is a Manipulated Vortex Waveguide?
Manipulated Vortex Waveguide tm is an electro-mechanical system that harvests and reuses the energy from the back of the loudspeaker transducer.
Basic Theory
Force tuning of the transducer does not occur.
Drivers [Audio transducers] are mounted in either cross-fired or single in a scoop ( <- this is important... see later) configuration in order to provide better driver loading and dispersion.
Energy from the rear of the transducers is not absorbed [is harvested], is bounced around and smeared [fractured] and further is not absorbed [re-energized] inside the Vortex Waveguide system.
Each time-smeared [fractured] segment is delayed [time shifted] in the waveguide prior to moving to [release in] the output flare port where it is combined with [encapsulated by] all the other wave bits [the output energy stream]. The delayed [time shifted] sounds [packets of auditory information] are combined [summed] with the output of the front of the transducers in the scoop ( <- this is STILL important... see later).
The resulting non coherent sound [multi-time-shifting signal] exits the front of the cabinet in the same air as the all the other sound [encapsulated in the bass energy stream]. This causes the creation of compressions and rarefractions (such as 17/43) in the air [a nearfield event horizon]. The resulting beautiful sound [auditory information] emulates other beautiful sound [sound creation] in nature.
The sound [de-correlated packeted information] is heard [summed by brain of the listener into correlated auditory information], as is done in nature. The beautiful sound [multitude of of slightly time shifted audio packets] created is [are] reflection resistant (somewhat like a duck's quack not echoing) and more natural sounding due to the ummm... air (?) [manner in which the information is transmitted to the listener].
The Vortex Event Horizon provides beautiful sound [an expanded nearfield effect allowing more efficient transmission of information to a larger audience area]. This also provides the ability of the MVW loudspeaker to transmit auditory information beyond line of sight with minimal loss. Nothing more needs to be said, but if all that isn't enough, The Vortex Event Horizon will wrap around objects, obstructions, and up to boundaries providing a self-adjusting nature to the nearfield.
So even with all this manipulation the Beautiful Sound (BS) is still ever present... but that's okay. The speakers are supplied with a scoop! And the BS is already in it!
D'oh... I'll never get that 15 minutes back...
