Abstract

A speaker for use in an automotive vehicle audio system has a vehicle panel oscillating to produce audio frequency sounds. The vehicle panel is driven by a driver of the speaker at a frequency and amplitude corresponding to frequency and amplitude of an audio signal. Such a speaker is especially adapted to reproduce relatively low-frequency sounds.
