Abstract

A loudspeaker includes an enclosure having an open front side defining a forward direction for projecting sound, a first support surface configured to support the loudspeaker in a monitor orientation, and a second support surface configured to support the loudspeaker in an upright orientation. In the monitor orientation, the forward direction is arranged at an oblique upward angle relative to a surface on which the enclosure is placed. The loudspeaker also includes an audio transducer positioned within the enclosure and configured to emit sound from the open front side of the enclosure, and a baffle securing the audio transducer to the enclosure. The baffle has a front surface facing in the forward direction and a channel formed in the front surface. The channel is configured to direct water out of the enclosure in the monitor orientation.
