Griulf Posted November 2, 2010 Author Share Posted November 2, 2010 So the speakers shake because the positive and negative changes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iced Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Electricity goes though the speaker causing vibrations which are then amplified into sound you can hear. thats the simplified version at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griulf Posted November 3, 2010 Author Share Posted November 3, 2010 The speaker got two magnets, one needs electricity and one does not. The voice coil is attached to a diaphragm(cone). When the electromagnets electricity changes direction, the voice coil moves back and forth. The diaphragm creates sound waves when moving back and forth. Is this correct?

Byte2222 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Yeah, pretty much. The coil is more strongly magnetic as you pass more current through it (and therefore drop more voltage across it) so it makes the diaphragm move more, so it'll convert an electrical waveform signal to an identical sound wave. If the electrical voltage goes negative the coil will move in the other direction as well but I think you've got the gist of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
