Test the limits of your imagination and turn any surface into a great sounding speaker systemSurface exciter technology provides a universal, cost-effective alternative to loudspeakers, allowing for sound reproduction virtually anywhere it is desired. Exciters may be used in a host of DIY executions to easily add sound to an existing non-audio specific project or create a portable speaker system, try out the assortment of exciters offered by Dayton Audio!

Aural Excitement Dayton Audio's DAEX32EP-4 Thruster exciter is built to turn large, thick, rigid surfaces into speakers. The 32 mm voice coil is attached to a high-strength spider for maximum restoring force when large amounts of power are applied, making it perfect for large glass panes, furniture, and surfaces that would normally resist the effects of an exciter! A neodymium magnet is employed to create maximum magnetic flux around the proprietary voice coil for increased sensitivity when compared to similar-sized exciters. In turn, this reduces power requirements and makes it possible to use very small audio amplifiers, without sacrificing total output.

by Dan FoxShimmer Tree is an impressive six metre high tree-like sound and light sculpture controlled by the wind. As the listener wanders underneath, the directional sound and changing resonances envelope the listener in an evolving and meditative sound bath that responds to the environment. It has 12 branches and 12 large cymbals suspended above head height. Each cymbal is fitted with a tactile transducer, transforming it into a metallic resonator speaker.
by David F GirouxI started with a vibrant 12×24″ metal print of fireworks over the Madison, Wis. city skyline — the “Shake the Lake” show over Lake Monona. This is my own photo, in a high-resolution professional print directly on a sheet of polished aluminum with1.5″ inset metal frame on the back. I installed a Dayton audio 15w/ch amp and 2 Dayton exciters behind the panel. Power switch, volume control, and aux audio input mounted discreetly on the side.
by Matty HughesMy new 192 Watt DIY DML panel build (Bertha)! At 20in x 22in each 1/4″ thick plexiglass panel is running at 4 ohm’s @ 96 Watts, exciters wired in a series-parallel configuration for each panel and powered by a HiFi 100W x 2 (200W) Bluetooth 5 amp with a 24V 10a power supply. A total of 8 Dayton Audio DAEX25FHE-4 Framed High Efficiency 25mm Exciters each 24W 4 Ohm were used for this DML build.
