Abstract
An ear-worn hearing device and acoustic transducer subassemblies therefor are disclosed. The hearing device includes a hearing device housing with a sound passage terminating at a sound port on a portion of the hearing device housing configured to protrude toward or into a user's ear canal. Multiple transducers are arranged end-to-end along a lengthwise dimension, wherein a first transducer is located between the other transducers and the sound port of the hearing device housing. The transducers each include a sound outlet acoustically coupled to the sound port via the sound passage.
