Electrical signals sent through the coil cause it to act as an &elipsis; [Credit: © Merriam-Webster Inc.]


In sound reproduction, device for converting electrical energy into acoustical (sound) signal energy that is radiated into a room or open air (&see; acoustics). The part of the speaker that converts electrical into mechanical energy is frequently called the motor, or voice coil. The motor vibrates a diaphragm that vibrates the air in immediate contact with it, producing a sound wave corresponding to the pattern of the original speech, music, or other acoustic signal.
