Here is an early prototype of a powerful plasma arc speaker / tweeter. This has now been superseeded by an efficient microcontroller based system.Supply voltage in this design is 50V DC - HV output is approx 60KV - Song playing is Alice Deejay's 'Better Off Alone' - Be sure to subscribe, to recieve future video updates on this project & others :)

nonetheless - meaning 'none the less' ;)

Yup - done some reserch on this an have a working model :) - not too efficient, but it does work.

I think I know what your saying... Any distortion you hear, is caused by the plasma physically jumping about - this has since been fixed using tungsten electrodes - please see my other vids ;)

this music is remarkably *degrading*. it is probably breaking down the sustainaing and complex geometry of em fields.

you can use this on special frequencies to adjust the vibration and organization of molecules and atomics.try using it to turn water hoh into water fuel hho.

no not by distortion, the sound is created by different amounts of power being put into the flyback, this inturn causes the arc to alter its shape causing diffrent air pressures which is bascicly sound

wow...that is frikkin cool...hard to believe but cool nun the lesswondering....is nun the less one wordnuntheless
