Abstract: Various implementations include an open-ear headphone, including: an acoustic module including a distal sound-delivery end; a battery housing; and a flexible arm physically and electrically connecting the acoustic module to the battery housing, wherein the flexible arm defines an original resting length and position between the acoustic module and the battery housing, wherein the flexible arm is configured to retain the open-ear headphone on an ear of a user such that the distal sound-delivery end is located in the concha of the ear and the battery housing is located behind the ear, and wherein the flexible arm is configured to be flexed at least along a length thereof such that a space between the acoustic module and the battery housing can be adjusted.

Abstract: A flexible arm that is configured to be located between and physically and electrically connect an acoustic module of an open-ear headphone to a battery housing of the open-ear headphone. The flexible arm defines an original resting length and position between the acoustic module and the battery housing. The flexible arm includes a flexible printed circuit that extends through the entire original resting length of the flexible arm and comprises a conductor that is configured to carry electrical energy between the acoustic module and the battery housing. A first interface structure is coupled to one of the acoustic module and the battery housing. A flexible material encases at least some of the flexible printed circuit and at least some of the first interface structure.

Abstract: An audio device with a body having a length and configured to be worn on or abutting an outer ear of a user, an arm coupled to the body and defining a distal end that is configured to contact an ear root dimple of the user, wherein the arm is configured to be moved relative to the body, and an acoustic module carried by the body and configured to locate a sound-emitting opening anteriorly of and proximate to the user's ear canal opening when the body is worn on or abutting the ear of the user.

Abstract: An acoustic system includes a housing includes an acoustic element opening with an inner edge extending from a first, outer surface of the housing to a second, inner surface of the housing, and an acoustic element having an acoustic element foam layer extending at least partially along a circumferential perimeter of the acoustic element, where the acoustic element foam layer is configured to engage the inner edge of the acoustic element opening when the acoustic element is positioned within the opening, and where the acoustic element foam layer is compressed in a direction perpendicular to a central axis of the acoustic element when the acoustic element is positioned within the opening, such that an acoustic seal is created.
