Abstract (en)

An arrangement (1) to improve the sound quality of a piezoelectric element actuating element (AE). A sensing element (ME) is attached to the piezoelectric element to supply an electric response to movement of the element when the plate vibrates producing a sound. The response is electrically filtered in order to compensate said mechanical resonance frequency band for stabilisation of said first signal. The filtered response is inverting summed by a summation node (SN) with the audio signal to be reproduced in order to compensate the otherwise exaggerated amplitude at these resonance frequencies. <IMAGE>
