Abstract: An earphone can employ a dynamic tip to seal the ear canal of a user. At least one audio transducing driver may be positioned within a housing that is attached to a dynamic tip. The tip can have a first chamber separated from a second chamber by a constriction ring with sealing material occupying portions of the first chamber and the second chamber.

Abstract: An intelligent headphone may be configured at least with a headphone having a shape, size, and material to engage an ear of a user. The headphone may have at least a controller, accelerometer, and audio processor. The headphone accelerometer can be positioned to allow speech of the user to be sensed.

Abstract: A wireless audio system may be configured with a mobile communication device that is concurrently wirelessly connected to first and second monitors, respectively, via first and second wireless pathways. The first and second wireless pathways can be different and provide stereo audio reproduction with the first and second monitors with 5 ms of latency or less.

Abstract: An in-ear headphone may be constructed and operated with at least a housing sized to fit in an external auditory meatus of a user and have at least one audio driver. A fitment feature may extend from the housing and incorporate a plurality of flexible flanges cantilevered from a unitary base. The fitment feature may be configured to engage a tragus of the user to secure the housing within the external auditory meatus.

Abstract: An in-ear monitor that can be customized for particular applications and individuals includes a housing formed from a body and a cover. A dynamic driver is mounted in a cavity in the housing on an angled mounting flange. The dynamic driver is acoustically coupled to a trumpet-shaped sound collector. The trumpet-shaped sound collector is coupled to a main sound bore that exits an opening in a nozzle portion of the body that is inserted into the ear canal of a user. An ambient sound port collects ambient sound and couples it to the sound bore. An additional bass port increases the bass response of the monitor. Ear impressions are used to customize the body of the monitor to the ear of a user and the location of the bass and ambient sound ports can be altered for different applications.

Abstract: A hearing device may be arranged with at least a rigid earpiece adapted to secure within a user's ear. The rigid earpiece can be connected to a tip constructed of a thermoplastic elastomer. The tip may have an annular protrusion with a first diameter and a cantilevered annular body having a second diameter. The first diameter can be smaller than the second diameter and configured to deform in response to heat from the user's ear.

Abstract: A headphone can have at least one wireless audio reproducing element attached to a headband. The headband may have parietal and temporal features with the temporal feature contacting a user's temporal bone and the parietal feature having a curvilinear extension from the temporal feature that contacts a predetermined portion of a user's parietal bone.
