Chris, concerning the questions I asked earlier, I have no project. I just want to know the physics behind why there is an impedence mismatch to air with monopole speakers.

I didn't realize that I had to have a project to ask these questions. I'm just trying to understand things to broaden my knowledge. That's all.

FYI, I work in the field and again, I find it not only fascinating to engage in these kinds of discussions but I feel that I need to know how things work. I've read Everasts book on acoustics a few times, I have a few books on speaker operation but I feel that some questions are not asked or do not go into detail.

Please remember, Chris, that I do appreciate your willingness to help me with the other questions posed and I do appreciate your knowledge.

Thanks.

After three days, do you concede ? :D

Thanks to all those who contributed, Chris included. Although my primary question wasn't really touched on, I do thank those for the discussion. Although I would for someone to expand on the impedence mismatch of cone speakers to air.

Apparently, cone is denser than air and so the acoustical transfer of energy will be a mismatch. The most efficient means of achieving the this transfer of energy, I would imagine, is to use air to move air.

Discuss ? :)

Bump. Hoping someone more knowledgeable than myself will comment on the physics behind the impedence mismatch between the cone which is rigid and dense and the light gaseous air.
