Abstract: An electro-acoustic transducer comprising a flexible film of piezoelectric material, at least one electrode provided on one side of said film amd a plurality of electrodes provided on the other side of said film to form a piezoelectric diaphragm and said piezoelectric diaphragm is imparted with a locally differing resiliency and/or tension, is provided. By using this piezoelectric electro-acoustic transducer in a loudspeaker, it is possible to improve acoustic characteristics thereof particularly in a high frequency range, to obtain a variety of acoustic characteristics and to effect motional feed back to minimize distortion of reproduced sound without involving any difficulty in manufacturing or affecting proper performance of the transducer.

Abstract: A loud speaker having air communicating holes within the rear portion of the frame and facing the diaphragm is provided with regularly woven wire gauze formed of warp and weft wire threads of different diameter, which gauze covers the communicating holes to obtain a stable vibration damping effect.
