In-wall multiple-bay loudspeaker system

A loudspeaker assembly configured to be installed at least partially within a wall, the loudspeaker assembly comprising:

• first and second elongate rails;
• a loudspeaker module, including a front face and a loudspeaker cabinet body that extends orthogonally away from the front face, turns about 90 degrees, and extends parallel to the front face of the loudspeaker module;
• and
• first and second compression clips;
• wherein the loudspeaker module includes first and second edges on opposite sides of the module, and the first and second edges are configured to mate respectively with the first and second elongate rails using respective ones of the first and second compression clips;
• and
• wherein the loudspeaker module front face is configured to be aligned within a specified distance of a surface of the wall when the loudspeaker module is mated with the first and second elongate rails.

A modular sound component system configured to be located at least partially within a wall, wherein the wall comprises a planar wall surface coupled to substantially vertical studs with corresponding wall cavities between the vertical studs, the modular sound component system comprising:

• a rail system configured to contact the wall, wherein the rail system includes first and second linear elongate rails;
• a first loudspeaker module comprising a first loudspeaker module face, a first loudspeaker cabinet configured to receive a first loudspeaker, and first and second rail attachment features disposed on opposite side edges of the first loudspeaker module near the first loudspeaker module face;
• and
• a second loudspeaker module comprising a second loudspeaker module face, a second loudspeaker cabinet configured to receive a second loudspeaker, and third and fourth rail attachment features disposed on opposite side edges of the second loudspeaker module near the second loudspeaker module face;
• and
• a spacer module that includes fifth and sixth rail attachment features and a stud attachment feature;
• wherein the first loudspeaker module is configured to be slidably coupled to the first and second rails using the first and second rail attachment features, respectively, to position the first loudspeaker cabinet in a first wall cavity;
• wherein the second loudspeaker module is configured to be slidably coupled to the first and second rails using the third and fourth rail attachment features, respectively, to position the second loudspeaker cabinet in a second wall cavity that is spaced apart from the first wall cavity by at least one of the vertical studs;
• and
• wherein the spacer module is configured to be slidably coupled to the first and second rails using the fifth and sixth rail attachment features, respectively, and the spacer module is configured to be coupled to the at least one of the vertical studs between the first and second wall cavities.
