A speaker enclosure including a compact quarter wavelength transmission path in the shape of a closed spiral that expands radially outward from a centrally located loudspeaker mounting location. The height of the transmission path has a minimum height that is equal to the height of the basket of the desired speaker. The quarter wavelength transmission path spiral of the provides an aerodynamic path for air flow therein which reduces the turbulence of air flow to a minimum that in turn provides even resistance to the air flow within the transmission line (Exhale vs. Inhale).
