A loudspeaker (100) comprising: an electro-magnetic motor (114) configured to receive electrical signals and, based on the received electrical signals to induce vibrations in a diaphragm (116) for generating a pressure wave; a surround (118) connected to the diaphragm for suspending the diaphragm from a driver chassis (120); and a damper (126) in contact with the surround for damping the vibrations in the surround and the diaphragm.
