How is the Onsia technology and performance different than a traditional cone speaker?
Conventional speakers use a pair of magnetic fields to cause a membrane, or diaphragm, to vibrate, thus creating sound. Onsia speakers, by contrast, use electronic impulses to produce multiple vibrations across a single surface. When you tap a drum, the sound vibrates across the drumhead, starting at the point at which you tapped. If you tap it softly, the volume is lower. Tap along the edge, and you get a different tone than if you tap the center. That’s the basic idea behind Onsia technology, but it goes one step further. An electronic “exciter” on the back of each speaker sends electronic “taps” along the surface of the panel. By changing and regulating each electronic tap, the exciter creates different volumes and frequencies that vibrate through the panel. The resulting vibrations are heard as sound. Onsia technology operates on a principle of complex vibrations across an entire panel rather than the piston-like motion of a diaphragm.
