Abstract
An electrodynamic loudspeaker comprising a chassis, a diaphragm, and an actuator. The diaphragm is disposed within the chassis and has a front part and a back part. The actuator comprises a first actuator part connected to the diaphragm and a second actuator part connected to the chassis to cooperate with the first actuator part via an air gap. In order to obtain a large amplitude of the diaphragm a sub-chassis extends between the chassis and the diaphragm, a first flexible connecting element connecting the diaphragm to the sub-chassis, and a second flexible connecting element connecting the sub-chassis to the chassis.
