One example process includes playing, via one or more loudspeakers, one or more audio frequencies at a particular sound pressure level, measuring, via a sensor, a displacement of a laser beam being emitted from a laser source through a slot of a soundbar housing the one or more loudspeakers during the playing, and determining, via a processor, one or more characteristic coefficients of a grommet based on the displacement.

A loudspeaker configured to be mounted in a seat assembly is disclosed. The loudspeaker includes: a diaphragm having a first radiating surface and a second radiating surface, wherein the first radiating surface and the second radiating surface are located on opposite faces of the diaphragm; a drive unit configured to move the diaphragm based on an electrical signal; a loudspeaker support structure, wherein the diaphragm is suspended from the loudspeaker support structure via one or more loudspeaker suspension elements.

Disclosed herein are examples of an in-ear audio device comprising a speaker cavity containing a speaker, a resonator comprising a resonator cavity and a resonator vent, wherein the resonator cavity is in fluid communication with the speaker cavity via the resonator vent, and a microphone comprising a microphone inlet, wherein the speaker cavity is in fluid communication with the microphone inlet via the resonator.

The present invention relates to a loudspeaker array comprising: a high frequency driver and a midrange driver forming a unitary assembly and configured to direct acoustic waves towards a listener in front of the loudspeaker array along an axis in a forward direction; at least one low frequency driver located generally rearwardly of the unitary assembly, and a woofer volume extending along and perpendicular to the axis between the at least one low frequency driver and the unitary assembly, in which the rear of the unitary assembly is configured and acoustically open so as to allow sound from the rear of the midrange driver to radiate rearwardly into the woofer volume.

The present invention describes a loudspeaker comprising a housing and a plurality of sound transducers arranged inside said housing, where the housing has two sides arranged on either side of a x-y plane with a mutual distance between said sides measured along a z-axis orthogonal to the x-y plane, and a front facing side and a rear facing side, and a top and a bottom, wherein

a. A first sound transducer is arranged inside a first cavity inside said loudspeaker housing, where said first cavity has a narrow first slit in the y-direction provided in the rear facing side, where said first slit has a width z1 in the z-direction, and a length y1 in the y-direction where the length y1 in the y-direction is larger than the width z1 in the z-direction;

b. A second sound transducer is arranged inside a second cavity inside said loudspeaker housing, separate from said first cavity, and where said second cavity is provided with a narrow second slit in the y-direction provided in the front facing side, where said second slit has a width z2 in the z-direction, and a length y2 in the y-direction, where the length y2 in the y-direction is larger than the width z2 in the z-direction.

A speaker comprises a housing, a transducer residing inside the housing, and at least one sound guiding hole located on the housing. The transducer generates vibrations. The vibrations produce a sound wave inside the housing and cause a leaked sound wave spreading outside the housing from a portion of the housing. The at least one sound guiding hole guides the sound wave inside the housing through the at least one sound guiding hole to an outside of the housing. The guided sound wave interferes with the leaked sound wave in a target region. The interference at a specific frequency relates to a distance between the at least one sound guiding hole and the portion of the housing.

An audio speaker having a speaker housing surrounding a back volume that is divided into a rear cavity behind a speaker driver and an adsorption cavity separated from the rear cavity by a permeable partition, is disclosed. More particularly, the adsorption cavity may be defined between the speaker housing and the permeable partition, and may be directly filled with adsorptive particles to adsorb gas during sound generation. The permeable partition may allow the gas to flow between the rear cavity and the adsorption cavity, and may retain the adsorptive particles within the adsorption cavity. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for providing and/or receiving audible sound. In particular, the invention relates to apparatus, such as a micro speaker, which includes an active region which comprises an adsorbent element in the form of a self-supporting monolith-like element with a porous reticulated structure. The adsorbent element includes adsorbent material which comprises microporous organic polymer (MOP) material. The apparatus of the present invention is suitable for use in an electronic device, for example a mobile or portable electronic device, to provide improved audible sound.

Disclosed is a sheet-shaped air absorbent for a speaker-box system using porous carbon fibers and a speaker-box system including the same, wherein an air absorbent for a speaker-box system includes at least one sheet member, and the sheet member was made by weaving fibers comprising a porous carbon-based substance or a sheet member with at least two layers, and the sheet member was made by weaving fibers comprising a porous carbon-based substance.
