Questions & Answers

Approximately how loud can these be and are they able to cover a wide range?

Depending on what you mount it on, both volume and range will be different. Material that is heavier and more solid, like thick hardwoods, will have a lower tone, and a lighter material, like rigid foam, will have a higher tone. The volume, and the range of sound that two of these can produce when mounted on the wall or attached to your coffee table will surprise you. It would be awesome to have a glass wall or dry wall. The majority of the excites, most of them Dayton, I've bought are from Dayton, and I've built some outstanding stuff with them.

The way they are mounted is very interesting. Is that all the circular dual sided tape can do? The vibrations they produce must be caused by the mount sticking out of the surface. ?

Only mounted them to the XPS foam insulation board and found that after a few months they would eventually vibrate off, so I roughed up the surface a bit, removed the 3M tape and hot glued them to the board. So far so good after several months of use. As far as other surfaces go, I cannot speak for them.

Do these come as a pair or is there only one energizer?

I'll keep it simple

Is this something you can use in a car?

I wouldn't say in the sense that you're thinking, but technically it could work. In a sense, you could stick them to your automobile in a way that will resonate with them, so they could be attached to just about anything. While the sound might not be good, the resonance is important.

Can you tell me what the problem is For a speaker project I had in mind, I ordered TWO of these Dayton audio exciters
3/5

What a disappointment it was when I turned the boxes over to find that ONE box It wasn't the first time I'd heard of Quality Control issues, but this level of error is outside of my comprehension. In my case I needed a center channel speaker for my bedroom, and the idea of using a lightweight panel suspended from the ceiling was the perfect solution. The product itself works as you would imagine, and you can create a unique flat panel speaker with very little effort. Because my Sony AVR has a slightly higher output capacity, I ordered TWO of them for installation on one panel since one would not be able to handle the sound smoothly. I have to use TWO of these because at 25 watts each these can't handle a lot of power on their own, and if they are pushed too hard they will rattle like hell, so I have to use TWO. In my role as an audio nut I'm kinda picky about the sound coming out of my stuff, so I was even more amazed at what you could get out of just one of these. Do they plan to replace the 12" and 15" drivers in my towers or my Martin Logan electrostatics in the future? No chance of that. You may, however, find that these solutions just fit your application requirements exactly in certain circumstances. I recommend opting for the larger 40 watt versions if these are meant to be used in larger areas, and using the smaller ones for desktops The one thing you need to keep in mind with this is that you will experience the tonality of the surface on which they are attached. Compared with all the panels I have tried no matter how thin they are, the 1" foam panel produces an odd plastic sound, the acoustic ceiling tile significantly dampens the output, and the 3/16" birch plywood panel produces the least bad sound. If you're considering a media, simply tapping it with your finger nail to see how it will affect the output seemed to be the easiest thing to determine. Also, the 3/5ths 2/5ths rule does not necessarily apply here when transmitting vocals, unlike in my application that transmits in the center channel. As a way to generate pretty images of a specific frequency played while maintaining a constant rate of speed of a salt crystal, this type of technology may work well for sure however human voice is rarely that stable or accurate. It took me several tries and iterations of that formula, including a 1/5th mount and a 4/5th mount before I settled on a deadcenter By pressing the transducer closer to the midpoint in the panel, I got a clear focus for my vocals and eliminated the breathless ethereal quality that is produced from the far end of the panel as vibrations travel outward. At the very least, you will have fun experimenting, but to be honest, don't expect too much and you will be just fine. Note PS. Please send me the missing unit so that I can give them more stars. A quick update After running another test with just the center channel active, I can amend my previous statement about the acoustic tile it does indeed appear to have the least impact on tonality of all the panel types that I tested. I now realize that the breathless ethereal quality I described above is due to reverberations emanating from the back of the panel and bouncing off the wall behind it. This music sounds exactly like something that would be played outdoors by a speaker in a room that's surrounded by a closed enclosure, and that's exactly how it sounds in these panels.

I am in love with this beauty of a product!!! In addition, I happened upon this product by accident as I was looking into how to build my first set of speakers, and I am very pleased with the overall sound quality of this specific Dayton Audio Exciter unit
5/5

On Dayton Audio's website, I read about how to use and place the sound exciter speaker on certain surfaces. The details on how to do this were very helpful, and I was able to make In the end, I was able to build two speakers out of three sixteenth inch thick pieces of clear acrylic cut to approximately 15 inches by 27 inches In terms of shape, it's a classic rectangle. In order to increase the power of the speakers, two exciters are attached in series to generate 48 Watts maximum power/speaker By connecting the 4 Ohms of each exciter (in series), a total of 8 Ohms will be created A WINGONEER TDA7492 Wireless Bluetooth 4 Amp was used as the amplifier. A 2x50W 2-watt power supply is needed This is a stereo digital power amplifier module for an audio receiver. As a result, I'm glad to have tried this first speaker build using this product, and plan to repeat the build next time with higher wattage exciters. I'm grateful to Dayton Audio for its support! I have updated the text to include the following We upgraded the amp and power supply from the original ones to what is described here. This DAMGOO Bluetooth 50W+50W Stereo Audio Amplifier Board with Treble and Bass Controls, Bluetooth and AUX Inputs, BT 5 features wireless streaming in stereo. With no password, your Wireless Speakers will be powered by 0 amps. The board is easy to install and it comes with instructions. Please click here to learn more about the company The Power Adapter 6A is compatible with the AC 100-240V The power supply is a 144W 220V to DC converter.

Instruments made of wood have a great sound
5/5

To make guitar pieces sound as natural as possible, I got them to sound like these. It is still my aim to find a perfectly fitting classical guitar body (snapped neck) to mount the speakers to internally, but even here with a slatted enclosure (lid closed), these speakers It turns out that the internals of an ordinary 10 dollar Bluetooth speaker consist only of two 5V 4 Ohm micro speakers and still produce a loud and clear We're going to play a practical joke on someone by providing them a guitar with a broken neck.

It is a cool project, and I can play with them because they are loud, clear, and cheap
5/5

In addition, In addition to the exciters, I also purchased them from Amazon, have been testing them for a while, and had just to reglue one, no In a science project, I used 2 bass speakers to make a pair of exciter flat panel speakers and they filled the room with a great deal of sound. It was very easy to build the speaker box out of scraps, and the 2 speakers did the job I required of them very well, and I did not break the bank. Additionally, the exciters came from Amazon as well, I tested them for a while and had to replace one at the end. Otherwise, I have not encountered any problems.

It is amazing how good the speakers are from DML
5/5

Polystyrene is what I used for making four DML speakers. This is an amazing sound system that fills the entire room with sound. In spite of the fact that she is not as big a music lover as I am, my wife has spent hours just listening to what these devices It's amazing that they can produce such amazing sound for such an inexpensive price.

I really like it! It works when you know what you're doing with these, and the best part is that even if you build a dozen of these and spend $400, your stupid friends' speakers will sound better

The product is great, but you can find it The exciters are a good value for the quality they provide
5/5

However, Amazon should not be used to buy them. If you buy directly from Parts Express, each one costs $5 less. By signing up for Prime, you are already paying for shipping, so you are paying twice the price for shipping. There's no such thing as free shipping with Amazon Prime, it's a monthly flat rate with a two-day.

Despite being OEM, it arrived much faster
5/5

Speakers like these are my favorite. I hung them behind my bedroom curtains, mounted them to pink foam insulation boards, and framed them. With 5, it sounds amazing. A 1 or a The amp is 1. In addition, the supplied sticky tape isn't tough enough to stand up to a month of vibrations. 3M extreme is what I've been using. I'm going to use crazy glue or epoxy next.
