Abstract

See full text

A dome speaker comprising a dome-shaped diaphragm formed of a highly rigid material such as titanium or a titanium alloy, and having at least one elongated cut-out portion which varies the rigidity of the diaphragm and prevents a dip in the anti-resonance frequency range and a peak in the high resonance frequency range of the dome speaker. The speaker also includes a voice coil bobbin connected to the diaphragm. Preferably, the diaphragm includes two elongated cut-out portions in parallel relation to each other and with a center portion of the diaphragm interposed therebetween. A reinforcing rib may be integrally formed at an end of each cut-out portion. The cut-out portion may be covered either by a peripheral member made of a soft material or by a loss stopper formed of a viscoelastic material.
