Abstract
A loudspeaker comprises a magnet, a movable coil, a support element and a membrane connected to the coil and which converts the movement of such coil into sound, said membrane being inflatable. The membrane is made of a single piece, is toroidal-shaped, can be replaced and it protrudes from the support element, said toroidal membrane generating a wide spectrum sound and allowing to reproduce—in the space and in a substantially isotropic manner—both low frequency sounds with their harmonics, as well as the medium and high frequency.

Loudspeaker comprising a magnet, a movable coil, a body for supporting the movable coil and an inflatable body defining a membrane of the loudspeaker which converts the movement of the movable coil into sound, wherein the membrane is rigidly connected to a support element of the membrane fixed to the body for supporting the movable coil, said membrane being made of a single piece, which is toroidal-shaped and protruding from the support element, said membrane having a first free surface distal from the support element and a second free surface proximal to the support element and protruding from the sides of the support element, both said first and second surfaces emitting a sound following the movement of the coil.
