Abstract: A speaker system and approach facilitates flexible installation and removal of an audio speaker into a structure. According to an example embodiment of the present invention, a speaker system includes mounting hardware and audio components with a fastening arrangement that facilitates the fastening of the mounting hardware to a structure and the audio components to the mounting hardware. The speaker system is amenable to a one-piece installation wherein the audio components are coupled to the mounting hardware during installation, as well as a two-piece installation wherein the mounting hardware is attached to the structure separately from the audio components. After installation, the one-piece and two-piece approaches both facilitate the flexible removal of the audio components from the mounting hardware.

Abstract: A shower head assembly includes a housing with a filtration matrix therewithin, typically of a charcoal-type filtration medium, and wherein the housing includes a lower end threadedly receiving a shower head, with an upper end threadedly receiving a conduit; a pivot connection mounted to the conduit, as well as the use of a cup-shaped connection member with a cylindrical resilient seal to mount the assembly to an existing shower head; a flexible hose in fluid communication with the lower end of the housing at one end and with a rigid tube at the other end, the rigid tube including a rigid tube sleeve surroundingly mounted around the rigid tube and with a valve to selectively control fluid flow through the rigid tube; and wherein the rigid tube sleeve has a first hook and loop fastener strip cooperative with a second hook and loop fastener strip provided in the housing in order to secure the rigid tube sleeve to the second housing.
