Abstract: A suspension system is provided with a frame to mount to a side surface of a speaker cabinet with a plurality of apertures formed therethrough. The suspension system is also provided with a lever arm with a proximal end and a distal end that are both adapted to connect to an upper support. The lever arm also has an intermediate portion that is pivotally connected to the frame about a pivot axis with a plurality of arcuate slots formed through. Each arcuate slot is formed with an end stop that corresponds to a splay angle of the speaker cabinet relative to the upper support, and each slot aligns with one of the apertures to receive a pin. Whereby suspending the speaker cabinet from the upper support pivots the lever arm in a first direction until the pin engages the end stop.

Abstract: Audio spatial effects are provided using a gimbal-mounted ultrasonic speaker array in which a vertical line of ultrasonic speakers are provided on a speaker mount and are angled to direct sound at respective different elevation angles. The speaker mount can be rotated by a gimbal. In this way, the azimuth angle of the linear array is established in response to a control signal from, e.g., a game console or video player, with elevational angle of the desired sound beam being established by selecting one or more of the speakers in the linear array with the appropriate elevation angle.

Abstract: An outdoor loudspeaker that is weather resistant and includes environmental lighting is described. The lamp is mounted to a cap at the top of the loudspeaker. An audio driver is mounted below the lamp. A system outdoor loudspeakers is also described. The lighting circuitry and the audio circuitry is separate, e.g., separate conduits and wiring in the loudspeaker. The cap can include a light guide, e.g., a lens centrally mounted in the cap or an opaque cover to direct the light downwardly and outwardly. At least part of the loudspeaker can be mounted underground and, in the case of a sub-woofer, the entire chamber can be mounted below ground.

Abstract: A connection pin comprises an elongated neck and a base at an end of the neck. The base may include a first portion, a second portion between the first portion and the neck, and a lip between the first portion and the second portion. A distance between the lip and the neck may be less than a radius of the neck. The connection pin may further comprises at least one spring-loaded element along the neck for maintaining the connection pin in a temporary fixed position relative to another element in which the neck is constructed for insertion and an actuator that retracts the at least one spring-loaded element when in a pressed position. An end of the actuator does not exceed a surface of the base when the actuator is in an unpressed position. An opening in the base may be threaded.

Abstract: Various aspects of a bracket system for speakers for a surround sound effect are disclosed herein. In accordance with an embodiment, the bracket system includes a first bracket assembly and a second bracket assembly. The first bracket assembly is adapted to hold a first speaker. The second bracket assembly is adapted to hold a second speaker. The second bracket assembly is mounted on the first bracket assembly. An angle between the second bracket assembly and the first bracket assembly is adjustable for an alignment of sound output from the first speaker within the first bracket assembly and the second speaker within the second bracket assembly.

Abstract: The present invention is applicable to the field of audio recording and provides an audio collection apparatus. Multiple fixed apparatuses are stacked and have ear structures and face contours, and audio collectors are disposed at ear canal openings of the ear structures to collect audio information. During audio collection, faces of the fixed apparatuses have different horizontal orientations, so that the audio collectors obtain the audio information at the ear canal openings of the ear structures towards horizontal directions. Therefore, rich sound sources and sound authenticity are ensured, sounds are rich in quality, a stereo field perception effect is achieved, a real sound field relationship can be restored, an in-head effect is avoided, and a requirement for real synchronization between a sound and an image in a virtual reality (VR) panoramic video technology is met.
