more simply:Acceleration = Force/Mass
Same force, high mass → low acceleration = low SPL
Same force, low mass → high acceleration = high SPLThe relationship (for first order effects) is independent of frequency.
Or if you keep mass constant and increase Force then you get higher acceleration = High SPL
It is the acceleration that creates the pressure wave, not displacement and not velocity the rate of change of velocity (acceleration) creates the pressure wave and it's amplitude (SPL).So, in a word...acceleration defines sensitivity...how you get that acceleration (low mass, high magnetic strength etc.) is the balance played in driver design.
