Loudspeaker From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to:navigation, search For other uses, see Loudspeaker (disambiguation).  An inexpensive, low fidelity 3?-inch speaker, typically found in small radios. An expensive four-way, high fidelity loudspeaker system. A loudspeaker (or speaker) is an electroacoustic transducer that converts an electrical signal into sound. The speaker moves in accordance with the variations of an electrical signal and causes sound waves to propagate through a medium such as air or water. After the acoustics of the listening space, loudspeakers (and other electroacoustic transducers) are the most variable elements in a modern audio system and are usually responsible for most distortion and audible(能听见得) differences when comparing sound systems.
