Electrostatic loudspeaker array

This invention provides a speaker system that includes an audio signal-receiving interface, a modulating circuit, a phase-control circuit, and a number of speaker units. The audio signal-receiving interface is configured to receive an audio signal, and the modulating circuit is coupled with the audio signal-receiving interface. The modulating circuit is configured to modulate a low frequency component of the audio signal and to generate a modulated signal. The phase-control circuit is coupled with the modulating circuit and the audio signal-receiving interface. The phase-control circuit is configured to receive the modulated signal and a high-frequency component of the audio signal and to control a phase of the modulated signal, a phase of the high-frequency component of the audio signal, or both. The speaker units are coupled with the phase-control circuit and configured to generate sound waves based on signals supplied by the phase-control circuit.
