    about how many watts does that arc dissipate? As in; what kind of output in wattage would i want from an amp going into the transformer?

    It’s a closed arc. If I remember my electrical education open arc systems produce ozone, but closed arc systems do not. Feel free to correct me on this.

    @timetec well. i Wikipedia’d “Plasma Speaker” and it says it does produce ozone :/
    something special about yours you aren’t telling us?
    and also even if it can reproduce sound infinitley more accurately, it is limited to a higher range of frequencies and i sorta like my bass :/

    Great effort!! The speakers go lower than other plasma I’ve heard. But sensitivity is a concern.

    that’s false. They’re high voltage and high frequency, but low on strenght, so, you you won’t feel it’s influence on your body, and power would not be enought to harm you…

    How is the voltage modulated? On quiet songs, the voltage could get too low for the spark to jump the gap, yet I see the arc jumping in complete silence.

    @activiafibras

    I have the thought of it as well. Actually it would be pretty sweet (with some ear protection and some low-pass filter on the audio input).
