Its basic means is a monolithically bonded construct prepared by monolithically bonding together a rare-earth magnet 2 and a an alloy material that is a high melting point metal or a high specific-tenacity material through the solid phase diffusion bonding by the hot isostatic pressing treatment, and a monolithically bonded construct with an interposal of a thin layer of the high melting point metal between a rare-earth magnet 2 and an alloy material 3, 4 that is a high specific-tenacity material. As a method for the bonding, there is used a hot isostatic pressing treatment method in which a rare-earth An magnet and a high melting-point metal are laminated together, thereby to prepare an object to be treated, then the object is put into a hermetic-type high pressure container having an inner wall portion equipped with a heater, then the object is uniformly pressurized in all directions by a synergistic effect caused by pressure and temperature, while the object is maintained for a certain period of time under a certain pressure and temperature condition in an atmosphere of an inert gas, thereby to monolithically bond the object. With this, it is possible to obtain a bonded construct in which a magnet can monolithically be bonded with another metal member with a high strength, without deteriorating magnetic characteristics, such that the rare-earth magnet's insufficiency in brittleness, rigidity, tenacity and the like is compensated.

A loudspeaker has a diaphragm with a voice coil disposed about its perimeter and extending in a gap into which the flux of an annular rare earth magnet is focused. An opening behind the diaphragm communicates through the speaker frame. The voice coil may have two or more windings that are connected in parallel, and may, e.g., be layered on top of one another, so that the impedance of the coil, as well as its depth in the front/back direction of motion, are low.
