ABSTRACT:
A speaker assembly for securement to the temples of an eyeglass frame, such as sunglasses, is disclosed. In particular the assembly includes an adjustable support which is detachably secured to the temples or fixed permanently thereto. The speaker is supported spaced from the frame and the particularity of its mounting is that it can be pivoted to emitt sound towards the ear of a wearer or fully away from the ear or any intermediate position. This permits the wearer to adjust the direction of the speakers to hear other important sounds that may be directed at him from his back or sideways. Accordingly, if the wearer is listening to the radio in an area where important sounds need to be heard, such as in vehicle traffic, the traffic sound will overpower the earphone speaker sound.
