Commentary
An all-omnidirectional spherical speaker system that can be used freely, hanging from the ceiling or standing on the floor.
The GB-1H has a spherical cabinet with a total of eight speaker units mounted inside.
Four 13 cm cone type woofers using Kurt Mueller's KDU cone are mounted for the low band, and four 7 cm cone type tweeters are mounted for the high band.
The cabinet is a spherical sealed type using ABS resin and is filled with an ester wool sound-absorbing material, thereby realizing an omnidirectional structure with almost uniform sound pressure in all directions at a solid angle of 360 °.
There was a special speaker stand sold separately.
