Abstract: The invention concerns a low profile, liquid sealed audio component assembly (100). The assembly can include a seal (112) having an opening (114), a membrane (120) that can cover the opening and that can substantially block liquid from entering the seal and an audio component (122) contained within the seal and positioned outside a coverage area (C) underneath the membrane. The membrane can transfer acoustic signals to or from the audio component. In addition, the coverage area underneath the membrane can correspond to the area of the membrane that can receive acoustic signals. As an example, the audio component can be a microphone.
