Abstract (en)

The invention provides a speaker comprising: a magnetic circuit 3; a vibration system 4 in which a diaphragm 22 is attached to a voice coil 21; and a frame 2 which supports the magnetic circuit 3 and the vibration system 4. The voice coil 21 is placed in a magnetic gap 17. By taking advantage of the characteristics of a plastic magnet that it can be easily processed into a desired shape, the magnetic circuit 3 is configured by: a plastic magnet 16 having a T-like section shape; and a yoke 10 which is continuously disposed in a bottom portion side and periphery of the plastic magnet 16. The number of components of the magnetic circuit, which conventionally has the three-piece structure, is reduced, so that the mass productivity of a small and thin speaker can be enhanced.
