A Novel Moving Magnet Linear Motor
AES Convention 136 · Paper 9060 · April 2014
Abstract
Electrical to acoustic conversion approach has not changed since the beginning of acoustics. New technologies in the electronic amplification domain and latest magnetic materials open a door in the field of alternative methods of acoustic transduction. A new electrodynamic device that considerably improves electrical to acoustical conversion efficiency, sound quality, robustness, and power handling has been developed. A fully balanced and symmetrical moving magnet motor design, along with anysotropic magnetic compound integration, delivers substantial performances in terms of acceleration, linearity, and efficiency providing additional degrees of freedom in high quality professional speaker design.
