A handle assembly for an electronic device, such as an audio device, is described herein. In some implementations, the handle assembly includes a flexible fabric, rope handle that attaches at the side and near the top of the device. The attachment assembly utilizes an eyelet that slides onto the rope handle prior to attaching an endpiece to the rope. The endpiece is inserted into a device housing opening that receives the handle attachment assembly. The eyelet is then inserted into that housing opening to secure the eyelet and endpiece into the opening. A sealing member, such as an O-ring, is utilized to secure the eyelet into the opening, and to provide other benefits, such as preventing or reducing acoustic buzz that would otherwise occur between the eyelet and the casing during audio playback.
