Loudspeaker arrangement for a vehicle

A vehicle comprising a loudspeaker arrangement, the loudspeaker arrangement comprising:

• a loudspeaker module including:
• a loudspeaker having:
• a diaphragm having a first radiating surface and a second radiating surface, wherein the first radiating surface and the second radiating surface are located on opposite faces of the diaphragm, and a drive unit configured to move the diaphragm based on an electrical signal;
• a waveguide configured to guide sound radiated from the first radiating surface of the diaphragm;
• an interior panel configured to be positioned between the loudspeaker and an interior of a vehicle, wherein the interior panel is configured to define an opening between the interior panel and a floor of the vehicle;
• a separation panel configured to acoustically separate a first zone from a second zone, wherein the separation panel has an aperture, wherein the loudspeaker is mounted across the aperture such that sound radiated by the first radiating surface is directed into the first zone and sound radiated by the second radiating surface is directed into the second zone;
• wherein the waveguide is configured to guide sound radiated from the first radiating surface of the diaphragm in a downward direction to the opening so that the sound can radiate through the opening into the interior of the vehicle.

A loudspeaker module for use in a vehicle including:

• a loudspeaker having:
• a diaphragm having a first radiating surface and a second radiating surface, wherein the first radiating surface and the second radiating surface are located on opposite faces of the diaphragm, and a drive unit configured to move the diaphragm based on an electrical signal;
• a waveguide configured to guide sound radiated from the first radiating surface of the diaphragm;
• wherein the waveguide is configured to, when installed in a vehicle, guide sound radiated from the first radiating surface of the diaphragm in a downward direction to an opening so that the sound can radiate through an opening between an interior panel and a floor of the vehicle into the interior of the vehicle.
