"The speed of sound is over 750 miles per hour. A speaker cone does not move this fast.

"

Get a clue about physics will you? Sound travels through air at the same speed regardless of how its generated. It depends on the density of the material that is propagating the wave. So the speed of sound changes a bit at high altitude vs sea level but it is minor. In water it travels much faster and in metals or other solids even faster.

- You are a bit confused, as example, does bass drum head move at 750mph when hit? - Edp 07:43:20 05/12/08 (8)
