Abstract: An article having a metal substrate and a channel in the metal substrate which is partly or completely open to the surface, wherein the cross section of the channel has a local width maximum (5) between the channel base (7) and the contact plane (1), measured parallel to the contact plane and at right angles to the longitudinal channel axis in the section perpendicular to the surface. (FIG. 1a).

Abstract: A loudspeaker arrangement includes a loudspeaker and a trigger circuit for electrically triggering the loudspeaker. The loudspeaker has a loudspeaker diaphragm for generating an acoustic signal. A digital pulse test signal is applied to the loudspeaker via the trigger circuit during a respective test sequence, the digital pulse test signal having a duty cycle that is predetermined to change such that the duty cycle increases over a plurality of periods of the test sequence at the beginning of the test sequence, and the duty cycle decreases over a plurality of periods of the test sequence at the end of the test sequence. During the respective test sequence, a measurement variable, representative of a voltage drop on a reference circuit connected in series to the loudspeaker, is detected, and the loudspeaker arrangement is classified as functional on the basis of a comparison of the measurement variable and a predetermined reference value.
