A loudspeaker enclosure comprising a plurality of acoustic sources and having controlled broad-band directivity.

An electronic device having several speaker modules that are acoustically in-phase and mechanically out-of-phase is disclosed. Embodiments include a pair of speaker modules mounted at respective ends of a lateral link, and the lateral link may be supported relative to a housing of the electronic device. The speaker modules may receive a same audio signal, and the audio signal may drive a first voicecoil in a first direction and a second voicecoil in a second direction. Accordingly, the speaker modules may be driven in mechanically different directions by the same audio signal, such that reactive forces cancel and/or mechanical energy is dissipate in the lateral link between the speaker modules. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

A headphone includes: a housing including a first aperture; a first driver unit disposed in the housing; a partition wall dividing an internal space of the housing into a first space and a second space, the first space communicating with an external space through the first aperture and containing the first driver unit; and a second driver unit attached to the partition wall.

A loudspeaker system includes a subwoofer. The subwoofer includes a housing having a plurality of walls which together define an acoustic cavity. The plurality of walls includes a front wall, a rear wall, a top wall, a bottom wall, and a plurality of sidewalls extending between the top and bottom walls and between the front and rear walls. A first transducer mounted to the front wall of the housing. The first transducer includes a diaphragm having a major axis and a minor axis. The major axis has a fist end proximate the bottom wall and an opposite, second end proximate the top wall, such that the major axis is arranged vertical, relative to ground when the subwoofer is rested on its bottom wall. The top wall has a handle such that the loudspeaker can be carried with the major axis arranged vertical to ground.

A speaker device for reproducing sound within a predetermined audio spectrum is provided. The speaker device comprises: a housing including a top, a bottom, and a side surface; at least one speaker disposed within the housing, the at least one speaker including a speaker flange facing towards the bottom; a waveguide including at least a first surface defining at least one sound channel for conducting a given sound produced by the at least one speaker, and the at least one channel includes a first zone, a second zone, and a third zone sequentially defined along a length thereof to provide for sound reproduction from 100 Hz to 20000 Hz.

A two-way receiver includes a cylindrical frame, a yoke dividing an internal space of the frame and including a cylindrical portion, a first flange portion formed at an outer periphery of the cylindrical portion, a connection wall bent downward from the first flange portion, a second flange portion formed at an outer periphery of the connection wall, and a communication hole formed by deleting a portion of the connection wall and second flange portion. A first speaker unit is installed above the yoke, and a second speaker unit below the yoke. A protector coupled to a lower portion of the frame protects the second speaker. A bass duct formed on an outer periphery of the first speaker unit has a sound emission hole for emitting a sound of the first speaker unit emitted to the communication hole of the yoke to a position spaced apart from the communication hole.

A speaker device of the present disclosure includes a speaker unit, a first passive radiator disposed adjacent to a vibrating plate of the speaker unit, a second passive radiator located in a first direction with respect to the first passive radiator and disposed to be opposed to the first passive radiator, a first cabinet including a first wall section and forming a sealed acoustic space, and a second cabinet including a second wall section, including an opening section adjacent to the first passive radiator, and forming an opened acoustic space. The second passive radiator is located in a second direction with respect to a first imaginary surface passing the first wall section of the first cabinet. The second wall section of the second cabinet does not project in the first direction with respect to the first wall section.

A dipole pair audio system (e.g., integrated into an artificial reality headset) comprising a first audio assembly and a second audio assembly. The first audio assembly is configured to generate first acoustic pressure waves, and vent the first acoustic pressure waves into a local area via a first positive vent and a first negative vent. The second audio assembly is configured to generate second acoustic pressure waves, and vent the second acoustic pressure waves into the local area via a second positive vent and a second negative vent. The first acoustic pressure waves and the second acoustic pressure waves are the same and in phase for frequencies below a threshold frequency, and are the same but are out of phase for frequencies at or above the threshold frequency.

A portable acoustic device comprising: a device housing that defines an internal cavity, the device housing comprising a speaker housing portion and a stem portion extending away from the speaker housing portion; a first acoustic port formed through a wall of the speaker housing; an audio driver disposed within the speaker housing portion and aligned to emit sound through the acoustic first port; a battery disposed within the speaker housing portion and positioned an opposite side of the audio driver than the acoustic port; an antenna disposed in the stem; a user input region disposed along the stem; and a system in a chip disposed in the stem, the system in a chip comprising: a processor that controls operation of the portable wireless acoustic device, charging circuitry, an accelerometer, a wireless communication controller, support components for the antenna and support components for the user input region.

The present invention relates to a spatial arrangement for optimizing the broadcasting of a sound signal and thus replacing the conventional stereo systems. For this purpose, the spatial arrangement is capable of broadcasting a spatialized sound signal, the spatialized sound signal comprising N mutually distinct audio signals, N being an integer strictly greater than 3, and the spatial arrangement comprising a set of N sound broadcasting devices predominantly distributed over the entire width of a scene. Each sound broadcasting device receives an audio signal of which it will amplify and broadcast the transmitted sound. In particular, each sound broadcasting device is specifically capable of reproducing and preserving the characteristics of the sound transmitted by the audio signal received, in particular the sound frequency bands and the sound intensity of the frequency bands of the audio signal.
