How To Turn Anything Into A Speaker

[regeHA]

Years in this hobby and I thought I've seen everything... at least in terms of speaker design.

Well apparently not... this small device (Dayton Audio Exciters) can be attached to any surface and that surface becomes a speaker.

Yes that's an interesting development that's having more and more applications. It's been around earlier than 1996 when the British ministry of defense licensed NXT to use the design in audio products. Many companies have been manufacturing products since. Now available as a small exciter which can be attached to any surface. The sound quality being determined by the physical properties of the surface you attach it to.

If I am not mistaken , someone on this forum has already been experimenting with this a while ago and built a large experimental 'speaker'. Search the posts . You will find it somewhere.
Also look up (on Google) DML speakers . You will find lots of interesting information.

So you've got interested in unusual speakers ! Good.
Here's another one !
A DIY Ribbon Speaker of a different Kind - diyAudio
If you have time you could build one. There are Youtube video's on this one also.
You need to remember that refining the sound is what takes time. Sometimes a LOT of time !
