Electrical signals are passed to a loudspeaker to produce sound. The electric signals are produced using materials that generate acoustic sound, or by mechanically driven signal sources. Modules and configurations of acoustic, vibratory mechanisms and electronic circuitry such as transducers and amplifiers. The acoustic or mechanical vibration is transduced into an analogue fluctuation of an electric current. A tightly stretched membrane vibrates to provide input to a transducer (pick-up). (en)
