Abstract
A moving-coil loudspeaker system incorporating motional feedback operable at high frequencies, i.e. above about 1000 Hz. The feedback signal is developed by a tiny piezo-electric accelerometer mounted together with a charge amplifier directly on the loudspeaker coil, in alignment with the turns of the coil. The coil comprises two layers of rectangular, anodized aluminum wire wound tightly to form an effectively integral mass. The system includes a suitable stabilizing frequency compensation network.
