Abstract
In an embodiment, an electroacoustic converter has an enclosure, piezoelectric sounding body, electromagnetic sounding body, passage, and wiring members. The piezoelectric sounding body includes a first vibration plate supported directly or indirectly on the enclosure, and a piezoelectric element placed at least on one side of the first vibration plate. The piezoelectric sounding body divides the interior of the enclosure into a first space and a second space. The electromagnetic sounding body has a second vibration plate and is placed in the first space. The passage is provided at the piezoelectric sounding body or around the piezoelectric sounding body, to connect the first space and second space. The wiring members are electrically connected to the piezoelectric element and led out toward the electromagnetic sounding body, from the piezoelectric element, through the first space or second space.
