What Does A Phase Plug Do? (Explained) - Loudspeaker
WEBPhase plugs are designed to improve the dispersion of sound as it leaves the diaphragm (or cone) and reaches the listener. From helping to extend the high-frequency response to reducing internal reflections, it is a fundamental component of compression driver design.
Phase plug - Wikipedia
WEBPhase plugs are commonly found in high-powered horn loudspeakers used in professional audio, in the mid- and high-frequency bandpasses, positioned between the compression driver diaphragm and the acoustic horn. They may also be present in front of woofer cones in some loudspeaker designs.
