You don't seem to understand how circuits, AC or DC, work.There has to be a complete circuit, AC or DC.
Power doesn't just fall out with no return path.
Let's think about the circuit between the output of a power amplifier and the speaker.
There is only AC flowing through the speaker wire.
There are two speaker wires so we have a complete AC circuit.
The current flows through the speaker wire and the voice coil in one direction causing the speaker cone to move toward you, then the current flows in the opposite direction causing the cone to move away from you.
Stu, think of it this way.........
AC is just DC that changes direction periodically.
