The housing body is formed with a first sound hole and a second sound hole respectively opening in two opposite directions. The speaker driver is disposed in the housing body, is located adjacent to the first sound hole, and is adapted to generate sound. The passive radiator is disposed in the housing body, is located adjacent to the second sound hole, and is adapted to generate sound. The first sound hole and the second sound hole are adapted for respectively allowing the sound generated by the speaker driver and the sound generated by the passive radiator to travel out from the housing body respectively in two opposite directions therethrough.

The speaker (20) also includes a first and a second passive resonator (24, 25) each including a vibrating panel (24a, 25a). The vibrating panels (24a, 25a) are positioned in the internal volume, with respective first faces facing each other and respective second faces opposite the first faces. The internal volume includes a first, closed air volume (V1) delimited by an inside surface of the cabinet (21) and by the second faces of the vibrating panels (24a, 25a). The internal volume also includes a second air volume (V2), delimited by the first faces of the vibrating panels (24a, 25a) and open towards the outside environment through the opening.
MODULAR SPEAKER AND MODULAR SOUND REPRODUCTION SYSTEM
A modular speaker (100) includes a main module (200) defining a speaker (20) and including a cabinet (21) extending along a longitudinal axis (X) between a first and a second end (21a, 21b), a sound transducer (22), provided at the first end (21a) of the cabinet (21) and a connection circuit (23), provided at the second end (21b) of the cabinet (21). The modular speaker (100) also includes a rear module (300) selectable from a plurality of rear modules (300) and connectable reversibly to the second end (21b) of the cabinet (21) and a front module (400), defining an acoustic accessory selectable from a plurality of front modules (400) and connectable reversibly to the first end (21a) of the cabinet (21).
MOTORCYCLE SADDLEBAG SUBWOOFER
Various aspects of the present disclosure are directed to a subwoofer housing that may be installed within a motorcycle storage container (also known as a saddlebag). The subwoofer housing may include a subwoofer transducer which when used in conjunction with full range audio transducers within the motorcycle audio system introduces dynamic low frequency harmonics into the overall frequency response. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the subwoofer housing may include an active subwoofer transducer, and a passive radiator transducer, both with downward orientations. The saddlebag including a floor, and one or more air vents in the floor. Sound waves emitted from the active subwoofer transducer and the passive radiator transducer travel through the one or more air vents and reflect in an omni-directional pattern from a road surface to generate greater audible levels of the low frequency sound waves.
MULTI-MODAL AUDIO AMPLIFIER AND RELATED SYSTEM
Various aspects include audio amplifiers for driving at least one speaker. In some cases, the amplifier includes: a controller for amplifying at least one input signal to provide an amplified audio output signal, the controller configured to operate the amplifier in at least two modes, including: a first mode including a dedicated connection to the at least one speaker; and a second mode including a direct physical connection with an additional audio amplifier and the dedicated connection to the at least one speaker, where in the first mode and the second mode the amplifier is configured to provide the amplified audio output signal to drive the at least one speaker, and in the second mode the amplifier is configured to forward the at least one input signal to enable the additional audio amplifier to control audio output at an additional speaker.
Speaker Structure with a Loading Hole
This invention discloses a kind of speaker structure with a loading hole. A characteristic is that it includes an active cavity that has a cone hole and a loading hole; a loudspeaker is sealed and secured on the said cone hole; the said active cavity is connected to the outside air through the said loading hole; the cone of the said loudspeaker has one side which is connected to the free space; another characteristic of this invention is that it includes a driven cavity that is connected to the said active cavity through the said loading hole; the cross-sectional area of the said loading hole is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the air passage on its either side; further, it is not larger than ⅔ the effective area of all the vibration units in the said active cavity; also, the volume of the said active cavity does not exceed half the total volume of the said active cavity and driven cavity. The loading hole constitutes a loading component which improves the transient response of the speaker body. To a great extent, it solves the contradiction between frequency response and transient effect at low sound frequencies. It lowers the requirements for the loudspeaker and simultaneously allows the frequency response and transient effect for the entire system at low sound frequencies to be handled relatively independently. This causes the loudspeaker cost to be reduced.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING AIR ADSORPTION MEMBER AND SPEAKER MODULE
In various embodiments, an electronic device includes: a diaphragm, a speaker module including a speaker configured to output a sound through a vibration of the diaphragm, and a housing accommodating the diaphragm and the speaker module therein and including a first space provided in a first direction from the speaker module and a second space provided in a second direction opposite the first direction. The electronic device further includes an air adsorption member comprising an air adsorbing material disposed in the first space and having a volume ratio of 90% or less of the first space, the air adsorption member configured to reduce air resistance to the diaphragm disposed above the speaker module without limiting the vibration of the diaphragm.
Motor Vehicle with Sound System
Motor vehicle with sound system A motor vehicle (10) defining a longitudinal axis (X), a front side, and a median (P) plane including the longitudinal axis (X) and which is vertical, and comprising: a structure (14) comprising a bulkhead (34), at least one front seat (26A) for a driver, and a floor covering (18), the bulkhead and the floor covering partially delimiting a passenger compartment (35), and a sound system (12) including at least one speaker enclosure (42) rigidly attached to the structure, the speaker enclosure comprising at least one woofer (50A) and being located close to the median plane (P): either longitudinally between the bulkhead and a front edge of the front seat, or longitudinally astride a front zone (40A) of the passenger compartment intended to receive the driver and a rear zone (40B) of the passenger compartment intended to receive one or more rear passengers of the motor vehicle.

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.
Speaker diaphragm and method of producing speaker diaphragm
A speaker diaphragm includes a first lamination region and a second lamination region. In the first lamination region, a plurality of layers are laminated in a thickness direction of the speaker diaphragm.
