The GÖBEL bending wave loudspeaker
In contrast to an ordinary stiff bending wave loudspeaker, the GÖBEL bending wave loudspeaker also emits sound by bending waves below the coincidence frequency. The secret of this feature is the special mass density and the damping characteristics of the sophisticated GÖBEL 9-layer membrane. Through our patented membrane, we achieve a very slow transition from a bending wave emitted sound to a piston emitted sound, which results in a perfect around dispersion. This makes it also possible to perfectly integrate an ordinary loudspeaker (e.g. subwoofer). Apart from this, the slow transition cuts off the excursive increase of the efficiency factor.
But a GÖBEL bending wave loudspeaker doesn't only induct a bending wave in a controlled way onto the membrane through the entire frequency range. It also damps the bending wave through the entire frequency range. Because, like a wave front is being reflected on the lakefront, a bending wave is being reflected on the membrane, which results in a resounding, diffuse and washed-out sound.
