An insert earphone is provided in which a piece of foam material is used
to resiliently mount a receiver within a chamber portion of a one-piece
plastic housing member. The receiver has an output port extending through
a central aperture of the piece of foam material and into one end of a
passage defined by a tubular portion of the housing member with a damper
being disposed in the other end of the passage. The tubular portion is
inserted into an ear tip or other coupling device and has an enlarged
diameter end section to achieve a locking action. Two such insert
earphones may be coupled through cables to a junction unit and filters
are provided for enhancing the drive of the earphones at high
frequencies, the filters being preferably mounted in the junction unit.
