Direct-Radiator Loudspeaker Efficiency at Fundamental Resonance

Authors: Zuccatti, Carlo

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 53 · Issue 4 · pp. 307–313 · April 2005

Abstract

At its fundamental resonance frequency, the conversion efficiency of a direct-radiator loudspeaker can be substantially greater than its rated efficiency. The behavior of a movingcoil direct-radiator loudspeaker near resonance is analyzed and ways are suggested in which this behavior might be used to increase the sensitivity of closed-box low-frequency loudspeaker systems.
