Abstract
A speaker includes a vibration diaphragm, a voice coil, a first magnet, and a second magnet. Each of the first and second magnets includes an end adjacent to the voice coil and an end distant from the voice coil, of which magnetic polarities are opposite to each other. The ends of the first magnet and the second magnet that are adjacent to the voice coil are of opposite magnetic polarities. The voice coil is partly aligned with a gap between the first magnet and the second magnet. A portion of the voice coil is located between the end surfaces of the first and second magnets that exhibit a height difference. Due to the height difference, a path of the magnetic lines of force is shortened and the magnetic flux density in an area around the voice coil is thus increased, thereby increasing the BL value of electromechanical coupling factor.
