Reports[edit]
Aperiodic: Manufacturer's Comment (from article by J. Gordon Holt, Dec. 1, 1969; about the first A25 version) The aperiodic design is not a bass-reflex approach, since there is no acoustic output through the port. The characteristics of the "plug" in the port are quite critical, necessitating individual adjustment of each system. This added acoustical impedance damps the woofer, improving its response to transient signals. Examination of the woofer cone motion shows that, with this aperiodic design (on which patents are pending), the cone follows the input signal all the way down to DC with far greater precision than is the case with either bass-reflex or acoustic-suspension designs. Dynaco
- Dynaudio called this design Dynaudio Variovent and at Scan-Speak it was "Flow Resistance Vent".
