Everything from Piezo to Planar, Electrostatic to [something else beginning with E]

 

Would be a fun read

God, I could think of so many types

 

Plasma arc

Radialstrahler (my new speakers use these and god theyre great) (only one company actually makes these afaik)

Piezo

S-ART

U-ART

Ribbon

AMT

Dynamic

Planar Magnetic

Electrostatic

Magnetostatic

Magnetostrictive

Thermoacoustic

Rotary woofer

Digital transducer (pretty much not used)

Bending wave

Moving iron

 

 

There's probably a few others I've missed but they're the ones that I can think of off the top of my head.

Main speaker setup is now;

 

Mini DSP SHD Studio -> 2x Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC's (fed by AES/EBU, one feeds the left sub and main, the other feeds the right side) -> 2x Neumann KH420 + 2x Neumann KH870

 

(Having a totally seperate DAC for each channel is game changing for sound quality)

You missed Balanced Armature 🤣,

 

I'm sure I'll remember more later too

Sloth's the name, audio gear is the game
I'll do my best to lend a hand to anyone with audio questions, studio gear and value for money are my primary focus.

BA drivers are actually very similar to Magnetostriction drivers, but I guess they're different enough.

 

I'll probably put together a post and plop it into my signature.

  • 3 months later...

my  z5500 finaly gave up , so i gone to a store and was listening to those adam brand , but damn the s2v is  expansive .... but they sound great, beter than t7v

 

also for those xlr, do  i need a special dps for it ? bcuz it says balanced at xlr input and unbalanced at rca, witch means rca sounds bad right ?

 

also i watched a youtube vid, but adam recommer continue 8 hours of loud music to burn in.....

how would i do that ,

i mean i need to sleep to ,

and i can not run 8 hours loud music, i live in a flat
