THD Podcast 39 - RESONADO Innovation in Thin/High Aspect Ratio Speakers New Voice Coil + Magnet Design

The Total Harmonic Discussion / the THD Podcast. A weekly discussion on audio and headphone technologies and the people who bring the technology to market. In episode 39, Paul Vedier and Peter Moeckel from Resonado in Chicago join the podcast to tell us about their Flat Core Speaker™ (FCS™) technology as a  novel type of electrodynamic speaker driver architecture engineered to enable efficient sound reproduction for high aspect ratio and low depth drivers. FCS™ technology enables a novel type of electrodynamic speaker driver architecture; meaning their structure functions in the same way as the conventional speaker driver, scientifically speaking. What they have done is restructured the essential components in a different configuration that allows for a low-profile, high-aspect-ratio speaker driver with a highly efficient motor that distributes force evenly along  the entire diaphragm. Instead of a cylindrical magnet-and-voice-coil assembly, they placed a  planar voice coil between bar magnets. The voice coil can be coupled to the diaphragm in different configurations including those that offer a  new style of modular driver design. Having engineered the technology to where it’s fully scalable, they are opening new horizons for product designers everywhere. Today they are working on pilot projects with leading global corporations to implement FCS drivers in consumer electronics, vehicles, and architectural spaces.
