An object is to provide an acoustic generator with excellent sound pressure frequency characteristics. To achieve such an object, an acoustic generator (1) according to one embodiment includes a piezoelectric element (exciter) (5), a vibrating body (3a), a frame (support) (2), and a damper (8). The piezoelectric element (5) receives an input of an electrical signal and is caused to vibrate. The piezoelectric element (5) is mounted on the vibrating body (3a), and the vibrating body (3a) is caused to vibrate by the vibration of the piezoelectric element (5). The frame (2) supports the vibrating body (3a). The damper (8) is provided contacting with both of a pair of two adjacent portions with different stiffnesses in a plan view.
