An apparatus and a system for housing a device are described. The housing may include top and bottom members that may be removably coupled together so as to form the housing. The bottom member includes a bottom peripheral portion having a sound transmission portion configured to allow sound to traverse through the bottom member. The sound transmission portion is positioned on a back surface of the bottom peripheral portion proximate a speaker portion of the mobile computing device when the mobile computing device is encased by the protective encasement. The speaker transmission port includes a plurality of apertures translating from the interior surface of the bottom member to the external surface of the bottom member and an acoustic vent membrane overlaying the plurality of apertures, the acoustic vent membrane configured to allow sound but not water to pass through the acoustic vent membrane.
