- the frame 10 comprises a connection element 20 that is configured to connect the frame 10 to the loudspeaker enclosure 30.
- the loudspeaker enclosure 30 may be mounted to a wall 40, for example.
- the wall 40 is a panel in a passenger compartment of a vehicle.
- the loudspeaker enclosure 30 may be screwed to the wall 40.
- the loudspeaker enclosure 30 may also be connected to the wall 40 in any other suitable way.
- the loudspeaker enclosure 30 may comprise a counterpart 22 for the connection element 20. That is, when connecting the frame 10 to the loudspeaker enclosure 30, the connection element 20 may be inserted into the counterpart 22, or may be connected to the counterpart 22 in any other suitable way.
- This is schematically illustrated in Figure 2 . In Figures 1 and 2 , the different elements are illustrated in an unassembled state.
