After reading through a few scathing reviews of the new HP Touchpad I was surprised at a comment about the "Beats Audio" quality on its teeny built in speaker. I mean why bother trying to improve internal tablet speakers? On my iPad 1 the internal audio sounds like crap but I don't care. It's good for the occasional bleeps & bloops, notification chimes and the sort. It's even ok as the worlds clunkiest mobile phone handset (using Skype or VoIP). For music it's awful, and that's fine by me. If I listen to music I use headphones.
Voice coil speakers by nature are large beasts. They require carefully tuned enclosures to get them sounding right. They consist of multiple drivers as each driver will have a resonant frequency or sweet spot.
