Abstract

An audio assembly provides audio content to a user. The audio assembly comprises an elongated body, a negative vent assembly, and a positive vent assembly. The elongated body includes an audio waveguide. The negative vent assembly is coupled to the elongated body and includes at least one negative vent that vents negative acoustic pressure waves generated by a back surface of a transducer coupled to a first end of the audio waveguide. The positive vent assembly is part of the elongated body and is coupled to a second end of the audio waveguide. The positive vent assembly includes at least one positive vent that vents positive acoustic pressure waves generated by a front surface of the transducer.
