The loudspeaker may be arranged within a structure of an assembly. The assembly may be a vehicle seat with the structure being a head rest or an upper portion of the vehicle seat.

In at least one embodiment, a feedback amplifier is provided. The amplifier includes an input stage circuit (206) and a collector element (208). The input stage circuit (206) is configured to receive at least one input feedback signal having wide band frequency components that include high frequency components and low frequency components. The input stage circuit (206) includes a first gain stage (220), a filter, and a second gain stage (222). The first gain stage (220) amplifies the at least one input feedback signal to generate at least one amplified output signal. The filter filters the wide band frequency components on the at least one input feedback signal to generate at least one filtered feedback signal having a first low frequency component. The second gain stage (222) amplifies the at least one filtered feedback signal having the first low frequency component and to provide at least one gain output signal.

The present disclosure relates to a loudspeaker assembly (100), characterized in that the loudspeaker assembly (100) comprises: a magnetic circuit unit (30) comprising a top plate (36) and defining a magnetic gap (38); a frame unit (20) connected to the magnetic circuit unit (30); and a vibration unit (10) connected to the frame unit (20) and comprising an upper diaphragm (12), a voice coil (14), and a dome (16), the voice coil (14) extending at least partially into the magnetic gap (38), wherein the dome (16) comprises a dome main body (160) and at least two crimped edge portions (162, 164) surrounding the dome main body (160), wherein the dome (16) is affixed to a top side of the voice coil (14) by means of the crimped edge portions (162, 164), such that the top plate (36) of the magnetic circuit unit (30) is disposed in a middle of the voice coil (14) in a height direction (z).

A data processing method and a control device are provided. The method of the present disclosure is directed to a loudspeaker system including a plurality of loudspeakers. By collecting locally measured distance information from respective loudspeakers and determining a real-time spatial layout of the loudspeaker system based on the distance information, automatic layout calibration of the loudspeaker system is achieved. Subsequently, according to the layout of the loudspeaker system, and in combination with an actual orientation of a user and spatial position-related data indicative of a position of a sound source in audio content to be played, corresponding data in the audio content is assigned to corresponding loudspeakers, thereby utilizing playback by the respective loudspeakers to collectively achieve spatial audio rendering, providing an immersive sound experience for the user. The method of the present disclosure does not require additional layout calibration processing, and thus can achieve real-time layout determination without user awareness and can automatically adjust audio playback of the loudspeakers according to changes in the real-time orientation of the user, thereby achieving user orientation-adaptive spatial audio rendering.

A shield assembly arranged around an acoustic sensor may include an outer shell extending from an outer apex to a base and forming a dome-shape, the outer shell defining at least one perforation to allow air to flow therethrough, and an inner shell extending from an inner apex to the base inside of the outer shell, the inner shell creating a channel between the outer shell, inner shell, and base to receive airflow at the at least one perforation, wherein the at least one perforation and channel redirect air to protect a microphone arranged within the inner shell from external airflow and preserving sound pressure measurement integrity.

The present invention provides a microphone module, comprising: a housing; a microphone unit disposed in the housing and located at the bottom of the housing; a top sound hole area located at the top of the housing; a first windproof net covering the top sound hole area; a windproof cotton unit disposed between the top sound hole area 5 and the microphone unit; and a second windproof net disposed between the windproof cotton unit and the microphone unit.

Various embodiments disclose techniques for generating one or more sound zones and a quiet zone in a listening environment. The techniques include configuring one or more filters of a filter bank, generating a respective speaker signal for each of one or more speakers by processing a respective audio zone signal for each of one or more sound zones using the filter bank, and outputting the respective speaker signals using the one or more speakers. Sound output by the one or more speakers propagates through a listening environment to generate respective sound in each of the one or more sound zones corresponding to the respective audio zone signal for that sound zone. The sound output by the one or more speakers propagates through the listening environment to generate a first quiet zone.
