Abstract

An area between a gas exhaust pipe (23) and the front side (26) of a diaphragm (14) near the magnet system (11) is closed off by means of a corrugated cover (27). The presence of the cover (27) prevents acoustic short circuits between the front side (26) and a rear side (28) of the diaphragm (14). Since furthermore the end of the gas exhaust pipe (23, 23'), which protrudes into a space (25), does not reach the end of the diaphragm (14) which is connected with a bead (31), such a loudspeaker (10) can operate at very low continuous output.
