About this event
Field Coil Speakers and Drivers with Wolf Von Langa via Zoom
What is old becomes new again? This is certainly true for Field Coil Drivers. Early speaker designs relied on Field Coils (electromagnets) instead of permanent magnets as the motor that translates the electrical signals from an amplifier to the vibrations we hear in the room. When the technology of permanent magnets matured in the 1940s and became cost effective, Field Coil drivers were largely abandoned.
But recently, a number of speaker designers have re-discovered their benefits and have created speakers that use them again.
Wolf von Langa is a pioneer bringing Field Coil technology to life again with his series of loudspeakers. Wolf will lead a virtual discussion on Zoom of the history, technology and future of Field Coil designs, and how his speakers excel in the area.
This is a free event for Foundation members and the public. Registration is required and a Zoom meeting link will be provided in your registration confirmation email.
