Abstract: A joining method is for producing a sound transducer system. The method includes: providing a piezoelectric material and a plurality of components, each of the components being characterized by a solidus temperature; arranging the piezoelectric material and the plurality of components in the form of a stack, so that adjacent to a front face of the piezoelectric material there is a front stack part and adjacent to a rear face of the piezoelectric material there is a rear stack part; and consolidating the stack by the introduction of heat and pressure for a predetermined period of time, none of the solidus temperatures of the plurality of components being exceeded during the consolidation; and, during the consolidation, the piezoelectric material being directly acoustically coupled to an immediately adjacent component of the front and/or rear stack part.
