Abstract

A thermo-acoustic transducer device (8) comprises a substantially hollow body (10) in which a thermo-acoustic element (11) is accommodated, and a heating control unit (2) coupled to the thermo-acoustic element (11) for controlling the temperature gradient of the element. A loudspeaker (14) is acoustically coupled to the hollow body (10). The heating control unit (2) may be arranged for being controlled by a control signal produced by a quality control unit (5) so as to control the quality iactor (Q) of the thermo-acoustic device. The quality control unit (5) may be coupled to an audio amplifier (4) to control the quality factor in dependence of properties of an audio signal.
