Abstract:
1. A speaker mounting assembly comprising: a speaker frame defining a housing to receive a speaker, the speaker frame defining a first plane along the face of the speaker frame, the speaker frame including a flange around the perimeter of the speaker frame, the flange defining a second plane that is at an angle to the first plane; a baffle defining an interior opening to receive the speaker frame, the baffle defining a third plane along the face of the baffle, the baffle including an angled ridge along the perimeter of the interior opening, the ridge defining a fourth plane that is at an angle to the third plane, the ridge defining a perimeter that is smaller than the perimeter defined by the flange, the ridge to support the flange when the speaker frame is coupled to the baffle; and a clamp frame coupled to the baffle to secure the speaker frame between the baffle and the clamp frame while permitting the speaker frame to rotate about a first axis perpendicular to the first plane, the angle of the first plane of the speaker frame, relative to the third plane of the baffle, being adjustable within a range by rotating the speaker frame about the first axis; wherein the speaker frame can be rotated relative to the baffle to direct the first axis to a given location in a room.
