DEF

Enceinte acoustique qui sépare le signal d'entrée en trois bandes de fréquence distinctes alimentant les haut-parleurs.

OBS

Au sens strict, le haut-parleur est une des composantes de l'enceinte. Il est donc abusif d'utiliser «haut-parleur à trois voies» pour désigner l'«enceinte à trois voies».
