Overview

The Visaton 4511 is a structure-borne sound converter, also known as an exciter, designed to turn surfaces into loudspeakers. It operates with an 8-ohm impedance and handles a power range of 20 to 30 Watts with a resonance frequency around 200 Hz. This transducer vibrates a target surface rather than using a traditional speaker cone, allowing for hidden audio installations.

Why Choose This Part

The primary advantage is its ability to provide audio in environments where traditional loudspeakers cannot be mounted or would be aesthetically undesirable. It is a robust solution for moisture-prone areas where a sealed surface acts as the radiator, protecting the internal electronics. The 20-30W power rating offers sufficient volume for residential and commercial ambient sound applications.

Applications

Invisible Audio Installations
Mounting the exciter behind wall panels or ceilings to create sound without visible speaker grilles.
Digital Signage
Turning advertising displays or glass panels into audio-capable surfaces for interactive kiosks.
Vandal-Resistant Audio
Providing sound output in public spaces where exposed speaker cones would be vulnerable to damage.
Furniture Integration
Embedding audio capabilities into desks, headboards, or cabinets by exciting the wood or composite material.
