BOX / SCOOPS / STACK
Core Definition
The physical speaker cabinets of a sound system — from folded-horn 'scoop' bass bins to the full 'stack' or 'wall' built for a session.
[ Comprehensive Explanation & Cultural Context ]
The 'box' is the generic term for any hand-built speaker cabinet. 'Scoops' specifically describe the large folded-horn bass bins that project sub-frequencies with maximum efficiency. When boxes for bass, mid-range, and tweeters are assembled together at a venue, the whole rig is called the 'stack' — often literally a wall of hand-built cabinets facing the dancefloor.
