Abstract
A receiver assembly for a hearing aid device, the assembly comprising a case having an inner cavity, one or more mounts disposed within the inner cavity of the case, and a receiver disposed within the inner cavity of the case and connected to the mounts such that the receiver is suspended within the inner cavity of the case. The mounts dampen any vibration transmission from the receiver to the case and from the case to the receiver. Most significantly, acoustical noise from the receiver and any resulting distortion, feedback, and/or interference within the other components of the hearing aid device are substantially eliminated.
