@elfin
it's a good question
a few things:
the 'speaker' is an electro-motive piston
so, -of course- there are mass ratios at play
there are hacks tho:
multi-source utrasonic hetrodyning.
utrasonic transducers, -duh-, much lower mass, & highly directional,
intersection of multiple utrasonic 'beams' can be 'tuned' via beat freq interference to pull much lower freq 'sound waves', at pretty respectable SPL
I think that's where I'd dig in
phase array
