Did the assignment say the speaker had to be moving coil?
Would it be easier to make if the magnet was moving?


I don't know if this would work, but the bottom of some large soda drink containers is thin plastic, it is very strong and it is concave. If you supported the sides of this (after cutting it off the bottle) on soft foam and glued a magnet to the centre of it, maybe you could attract the magnet with a coil wound on some soft iron.
