Abstract
An audio system has an enclosure and a transducer that is mounted to the enclosure. The transducer creates a vibration of the enclosure in response to being driven by an audio signal. A cradle assembly mechanically couples a portable device to the enclosure through one or more isolators such that only a portion of the vibration is coupled to the portable device. The enclosure is supported substantially entirely by the cradle assembly.
