This incredible speaker does not have a moving cone like most speakers you've seen, instead, a small metal rod is wrapped with the voice coil. When current is pulsed through the coil, the magnetic field causes a piece of metal to expand and contract - if pressed against a flat surface or cavity it turns it into a speaker! Often these size transducers are pressed up against the jaw or ear bone to turn the skull into a speaker cavity.

The effect is a perfect quality sound that is coming from within your head that nobody else can hear. You can also press it against your elbow bone and stick a finger in your ear to hear the audio transmitted through your arm! Other fun tricks you can try: press it against a table or wall to make a flat speaker, or at the end of a plastic cup to point sound in a particular direction. This transducer is lightweight and small and has 8 ohm impedence and should be run at about 1W.

It pairs great with any of our audio amps such as the TS2012 breakout or MAX98306. Bone Conductor Transducer with Wires - 8 Ohm 1 Watt (7:01)
