Aspects of the subject technology relate to electronic devices having speakers. An electronic device may operate a pair of speakers to in a way that mitigates electromagnetic interference with a display of the electronic device. For example, the speakers may be operated acoustically and mechanically in phase, and electrically out of phase, to mitigates interference with a display of the electronic device.

Audio transducer systems for electronic devices with displays

A multimedia device having a housing that includes a display screen, two tweeters, two mid-range drivers, and two woofers, which are integrated into the housing. Both woofers are disposed at a first distance from a center vertical axis of the housing in opposite horizontal directions, both tweeters are disposed at a second distance from the center vertical axis in the opposite horizontal directions, and both mid-range drivers are disposed at a third distance from the center vertical axis in opposite horizontal directions. In addition, both the first and second distances are greater than the third distance.

Speaker driver arrangement for implementing cross-talk cancellation

Aspects of the subject technology relate to a device comprising a moving-coil speaker including a diaphragm to play low-frequency signals from an audio-signal source, and a piezoelectric transducer coupled to the diaphragm to play high-frequency signals from the audio-signal source. A coupler couples the diaphragm to a housing of the device.

Two-way integrated speaker with piezoelectric diaphragm as tweeter

An electronic device can include a housing defining an aperture and a display positioned in the aperture. The display and the housing can define an internal volume in which a speaker assembly is positioned. The speaker assembly can include a speaker module and a speaker enclosure in fluid communication, with the speaker enclosure at least partially defining a speaker volume.

Speaker assembly

A portable electronic device can include a housing defining an aperture and a display positioned in the aperture. The display and the housing can define an internal volume and a speaker assembly can be positioned in the internal volume. The speaker assembly can include a speaker enclosure sealed to the housing within the internal volume, the speaker enclosure and the housing defining a speaker volume, and a speaker module in fluid communication with the speaker volume, the speaker module including a diaphragm positioned at an aperture defined by the speaker volume, the diaphragm defining multiple ridges.

Portable electronic device

Systems of the present disclosure include an electronic device with a chassis and a speaker assembly. The speaker assembly can include a speaker support surrounding a speaker and coupled to the chassis via a spring element. The spring element can be monolithically formed with a main body of the speaker support and be configured to reduce transmission of vibrations from the speaker to the chassis. For example, the spring element can include an arm that extends within an opening of the main body to connect the main body to a fastener secured to the chassis. The spring element can be provided with features that facilitate wide distribution of loads and relative movement between the speaker assembly and the chassis.
