speaker cabinet

Sound system box

A speaker cabinet is the enclosure housing one or more loudspeaker drivers.

The cabinet's size, shape, and internal design affect sound quality—controlling bass response, resonance, and projection.

Guitar amplifiers often separate the amp head from the speaker cabinet, called a cab: He ran his amp through a 4x12 cab.

Home and professional audio systems use speaker cabinets ranging from compact bookshelf units to massive concert arrays.
