Atlantic Technology Unveils First True Wireless Earbuds

This article reviews a patent originally granted to inventors Philip R. Clements; (Tempe, AZ), Boaz Shalev; (Needham, MA), and James Joseph Croft, III; (Bellevue, WA), which has now expired. The patent describes a low-frequency transducer system with a multi-compression chamber, where an inverse horn structure is employed in combination with a resonance-distortion filter chamber. This was the third patent granted on Atlantic Technology’s low frequency system known by the trademark name H-PAS (High Pressure Acceleration System).

Atlantic Technology is now shipping their highly anticipated next generation AT-Series tower speaker, the AT-3. This 2-way speaker is the improved successor to the acclaimed AT-1 and also incorporates the company’s H-PAS technology for enhanced bass performance - yet its cabinet size is 25% smaller. Enclosure design refinements, combined with proprietary new Atlantic Technology drivers and features make the AT-3 an outstanding value at $3,000 a pair (MSRP).
