Devices, systems and methods relating to audio transducers and audio devices

An audio transducer comprising:

• a transducer base structure;
• a diaphragm having a diaphragm body and a diaphragm base structure coupled to a base of the diaphragm body;
• a diaphragm suspension system coupling the diaphragm to the transducer base structure to enable rotational motion of the diaphragm about an axis of rotation;
• and a transducing mechanism operatively coupled to the diaphragm to transduce between electrical audio signals and sound pressure, the transducing mechanism having a diaphragm-side force transferring component, and wherein:
• the diaphragm base structure is coupled in close proximity to or comprises the diaphragm-side force transferring component;
• the diaphragm body rigidly couples the diaphragm base structure via a diaphragm base reinforcing system;
• and
• the diaphragm base reinforcing system comprises at least one triangulated structure coupling the diaphragm body to the diaphragm base structure.
