I've had this idea for a while and have no idea why I have taken so long to post it...
Headphones and Speakers are all about moving air and we've done this in a whole bunch of different ways. Do you think it could be done in a similar way to the ion lifter things that many people have made such as this one: HVLabs.com
I'd have thought you could do it by having the thin wire in the middle and having the two larger electrodes where air is attracted to on either side. Then you could be constantly creating thrust, but changing the direction in which it's going by having the two attracting electrodes being activated at different times to move air back and forward.
I have no idea if this would actually work but I'd have thought it'd sound pretty good considering you don't have a driver that has inertia and you'd be able to move more air than a plasma arc so you'd actually be able to get some bass out of it.
I don't have the knowledge or the skills to build something like this but I'm sure someone here would be able to build such a device and the required driving circuitry. Anyone think this could actually work?
