If the meaning of "effect" was implied, take neither notice nor heed hereto.

Looks like the shape both "affects" AND "effects" the sound. :-)]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/Dec 19th 2005 2:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/Dec 19th 2005 2:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/
These cannot produce bass. It is impossible for a speaker that size to produce bass at a level that you would be able to hear. Hence the woofer in the middle of them.

I would be more impressed if they made a really big one of these things a subwoofer. Then you would be able to see it shaking and twitching... probably wouldn't sound very good - but sure would look cool.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/Dec 19th 2005 2:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/

Second of all, this thing is more similar to electrostatic rather than conventional cone speaker drivers. Except, this driver is "decorative" since you can print stuff on it.

Obviously, sound quality is not there niche.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/
"sound quality is not _their_ niche."

But yeah, I don't see these speakers as anything but a gimmick. Directional sound though, that stuff is where it's at.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/Dec 19th 2005 2:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/Dec 19th 2005 2:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/24/live-shots-of-mirae-plasmas-paper-thin-speakers/
