SUMMARY
When a loudspeaker is connected to direct current (DC), it remains in a fixed position without vibration. Upon cutting off the DC power, the loudspeaker's coil, which is mounted to maintain an equilibrium position, will attempt to return to that position. Initially, the loudspeaker will experience a sudden release of force, causing it to move away from its equilibrium before eventually coming to rest. This behavior is critical for understanding loudspeaker dynamics and response to power interruptions.
