Abstract

An earphone includes a housing that is connected with a nozzle for emitting sound to the outside, a fixed pole that is fixed inside the housing, a diaphragm that is provided so as to divide a space inside the housing into two, and vibrates in accordance with a potential difference generated between the diaphragm and the fixed pole facing each other, a support part that supports the diaphragm such that a portion of the diaphragm is in contact with the fixed pole, and an adjustment hole that is formed so as to penetrate a wall of the housing on a side opposite to the one having the nozzle, from the perspective of the diaphragm, and adjusts a pressure inside the housing. A through-membrane hole penetrating the diaphragm is formed in the portion of the diaphragm.
