TS2012 used to drive surface transducer

Post by walkindude125 »

Hi!

I have a TS2012 amp breakout and I want to use it to power some surface transducers (these ones to be exact: https://www.parts-express.com/tectonic- ... m--297-208. The tutorial for the TS2012 says to only use it with coil driven speakers, but you show it being used with the Bone Conductive Transducer, so will this amp work for the surface transducers I have? Thanks for your help!

The page you linked mentions a magnet and a voice coil, so it should work without any trouble.

Pretty much anything that actually generates sound will fall in the heading of moving-coil speakers. What you don't want to do is connect the output from the MAX2012 to the input of some other amplifier. That Would Be Bad.
