ABSTRACT:
The dynamic loudspeaker driving apparatus consists of at least a power amplifier and a feedback circuit. The power amplifier amplifies an input signal so that the dynamic loudspeaker is driven by the amplified input signal. A detecting circuit is further provided in order to accurately detect a motional voltage produced at an equivalent motional impedance of dynamic loudspeaker, and the feedback circuit negatively feedbacks the detected motional voltage to the power amplifier so that distortions due to a transient response of a vibration system of dynamic loudspeaker will be eliminated. The amplified input signal is supplied to a first terminal of dynamic loudspeaker and a voltage at a second input terminal of dynamic loudspeaker is supplied to the feedback circuit, and impedance components other than the equivalent motional impedance can be canceled. In addition, it is possible to be further provided with a filter circuit having a frequency response characteristics which can be obtained by electrically simulating a voltage transmission characteristic against the equivalent motional impedance of dynamic loudspeaker. Thus, the input signal can be given with a desirable frequency characteristic by the filter circuit and then supplied to the power amplifier.
