Ceramic Magnet Speaker

Ceramic speakers are heavier because their magnet must be heavier to achieve the same power all other thing equal.

Ceramic magnet speaker.

Alnico speakers compress at high volumes. If you are comparing speakers that have the same magnetic flux but generated from different magnet compositions you probably won t notice a difference in tonality. Alnico speaker breakup quicker that ceramic i. They are electrically nonconductive meaning that they are insulators and ferrimagnetic meaning they can easily be magnetized or attracted to a magnet.

A ferrite is a ceramic material made by mixing and firing large proportions of iron iii oxide fe 2 o 3 rust blended with small proportions of one or more additional metallic elements such as barium manganese nickel and zinc. Differences in tonality that are often attributed to the magnet material probably have more to do with the positioning of the. Ceramic magnets are made of strontium ferrite which a much cheaper and more abundant material. Brief introduction of speaker magnets.

The first crop of speakers in the early 1950s used alnico magnets which is why some people say they sound more vintage than speakers built with ceramic magnets. 4 75 no cover 5 375 with cover cutout size. Ceramic is the cheapest and most common material.

The permanent magnets used in speakers are called speaker magnets. As the voice coil s effect lowers the available magnetic field of the alnico magnet the speaker becomes less efficient and the voice coil moves less.
