Abstract: A method and system (50) for inducing multi-frequency vibrations in a vibration propagating structure, for example a seat (52), is disclosed. The system is comprised of an acoustic vibration transducer unit (12) mounted on a relatively flat and rigid surface (54?) such that the direction of movement of an actuating element in the unit is parallel to the surface. When the unit is driven by an amplified low frequency audio signal a person sitting in the seat experiences vibrations. Additionally, a series of vibration propagating structures, for example a row of seats at a movie theatre, can be connected in series via vibration-propagating members (60) between adjacent seats thereby allowing a single acoustic vibration transducer unit to propagate vibrations to all connected seats.

Abstract: A three-way speaker comprises a high frequency transducer, a mid-frequency transducer, a low frequency transducer, and a hollow speaker cabinet defining a pyramidal mid-frequency transducer compartment and a low frequency transducer compartment isolated from the mid-frequency transducer compartment. The high frequency transducer is mounted in a first hole of the cabinet opening in the low frequency transducer compartment, the mid-frequency transducer is mounted in a second hole of the cabinet opening in the mid-frequency transducer compartment, and the low frequency transducer is mounted in a third hole of the cabinet opening in the low frequency transducer compartment. Therefore, the isolated mid-frequency transducer compartment and low frequency transducer compartment also isolates the mid-frequency transducer from a displacement of air produced by the low frequency transducer in the low frequency transducer compartment.
