| Speakers are electroacoustic devices that convert electrical signals into sound waves. A speaker uses a permanent magnet and a coil attached to the membrane. Sound signal flowing through the coil creates an electromagnetic field with variable strength; the coil attracts a magnet according to the strength of the field, thus making a membrane vibrate and creating a sound wave.\\ | Speakers are electroacoustic devices that convert electrical signals into sound waves.
