A microphone includes a housing; a back volume within the housing; a diaphragm within the housing; a backplate attached to the housing; and a diaphragm ring connected to the diaphragm. The diaphragm ring has a body defined by an outer perimeter and at least a first inner perimeter and a second inner perimeter adjacent the first inner perimeter. The first inner perimeter is adjacent to a top surface of the diaphragm ring. The second inner perimeter is adjacent to the bottom surface of the diaphragm ring. The second inner perimeter is smaller than the first inner perimeter.
