Abstract
A system providing a resonator for a transducer of an electronic device is provided. The system comprises a housing defining: a first enclosure having a first opening to house a back end of the transducer and a second opening; a port connected to the first enclosure through the second opening of the first enclosure, the port having a first end, a second end, an interior channel and a second opening in the second end; a second enclosure to cover a front portion of the speaker; and at least one aperture defined in the second enclosure to allow air outside of the electronic device to be in communication with the front of the transducer. When the transducer is mounted into the first enclosure, a first volume between the transducer and the first enclosure is formed which is in communication with air surrounding the second end of the port.
