1. An acoustic device, wherein a direction in which a face of a listener is oriented is referred to as a forward direction, a side opposite to a side in the forward direction is referred to as a rear side, a direction in which left and right ears of the listener are aligned is referred to as a horizontal direction, and a direction orthogonal to both the forward direction and the horizontal direction is referred to as an up-down direction, the acoustic device comprising:
a case, a pair of speaker units disposed in the case, and a pair of bass-reflex ports disposed in the case, such that each pair is line-symmetric in the horizontal direction with respect to a center line extending in an up-down direction, wherein:
the case is positioned on the rear side of the listener, and the respective speaker unit is disposed so that a sound generated by the speaker unit is directed forward;
the case includes an air chamber to which air vibration on the rear side of the respective speaker unit is transmitted, the respective bass-reflex port that communicates with the air chamber and is open in the forward direction, a head-facing portion that faces a back of a head fo the listener, sound generation spaces to each of which air vibration in front of one of the speaker units is transmitted, and sound generation openings each of which communicates with one of the sound generation spaces and is open at one of both ends of the head-facing portion in the horizontal direction;
with the bass-reflex ports, an opening dimension in the up-down direction is larger than an opening dimension in the horizontal direction;
each of the bass-reflex ports is open on an outside of one of the sound generation openings in the horizontal direction;
with the sound generation openings as well, an opening dimension in the up-down direction is larger than an opening dimension in the horizontal direction; and,
the opening dimension of the sound generation openings in the up-down direction and the opening dimension of the bass-reflex ports in the up-down direction are generally equal to each other such that a difference between the opening dimension of the sound generation openings and the opening dimension of the bass-reflex ports is 10% or less of the larger ones of the opening dimensions.
