Abstract
A waveguide housing for a speaker assembly. The speaker assembly includes first and second drivers coupled to the waveguide housing where the first driver generates a midrange sound signal and the second driver emits a high-frequency sound signal. The waveguide housing includes a first plurality of sound channels configured to receive the midrange sound signal from the first driver such that the midrange sound signal travels through the first plurality of sound channels and is emitted from the waveguide housing by a first plurality of openings in the waveguide housing. The waveguide housing also includes a second plurality of sound channels configured to receive the high-frequency sound signal from the second driver such that the high-frequency sound signal travels through the second plurality of sound channels and is emitted from the waveguide housing by a second plurality of openings in the waveguide housing.
