As the AC signal is applied to the coil, the magnetic field causes it to oscillate. Since the coil is attached to the diaphragm, any audio signal applied to the speaker causes the diaphragm to move and sound waves to be produced.
Although microphone signals are often amplified and sent through speakers, we know that speakers can work without microphones. Speakers often playback recorded audio which could have been recorded with a microphone , but the record itself does not require any microphone for its signal to be sent to the speaker.
On top of that, some recordings are made using absolutely no mics synthesizers, etc. Although microphones do not require loudspeakers or headphones to function and vice versa , these audio devices often work together.
This is particularly true on stage and in the studio. So how do mics and playback systems work together? The signal flow starts at the mic and ends at the speaker, but some devices are required in between. The main devices besides the mic and speaker are amplifiers and the audio console, mixing board, or digital workstation DAW.
Microphones output mic level signals. These mic level signals require amplification from a microphone preamp to become line level. Line level is the professional standard audio level for use in mixing consoles and digital audio workstations.
Mic levels are too low for these devices while speaker level is too high. Once the mic signal is processed through the console or DAW, it can be monitored through speakers. Speakers and headphones require speaker level audio signals. These signals range greatly depending on the size of the speaker but almost always require amplification from line level.
It is attached to the moving coil, which vibrates in response to the incoming sound waves. That is, the coil moves back and forth around the permanent magnet. This movement is converted into electrical signals, which are directed towards the loudspeaker through the wires. Loudspeaker A loudspeaker is a device that reproduces sounds in various audio visual equipments such as radio, television and tape recorder. It has four main parts namely, permanent magnet, voice coil, paper cone and a pair of electrical signal terminals connected to an amplifier.
A loudspeaker uses a coil of wire suspended in a stationary magnetic field. Carbon, dynamic, crystal and capacitor microphone types are unidirectional microphones. They are referred as pressure operated microphones. The ribbon microphone is velocity operated microphone in which sound can enter from either of its two sides. A speaker takes the electrical signal as input and translates it back into physical vibrations to create sound waves. It is known as electromechanical device.
It is use for numerous applications such as hearing aids, air raid sirens, public address systems etc. There are two main types of loudspeakers viz. It can be wired or wireless i. Loudspeakers are used along with enclosures which are used to reduce free-cone problems of cancellation and resonance. Enclosures will prevent sound waves emitted from rear to mix with the sound wave emitted from front.
