1. An electro-acoustic transducer for transducing acoustic signals at or below a pre-selected acoustic frequency, comprising:a plurality of cymbal-shaped acoustic elements; and a pair of plates; wherein each of said plurality of cymbal-shaped acoustic elements is disposed in mechanical parallel arrangements between said pair of plates, and each of said elements is further disposed in electric parallel arrangements with respect to one another; and wherein the size of each of said pair of plates and the number of said elements is selected to be driven in piston mode by said plurality of cymbal-shaped acoustic elements at or below said pre-selected frequency.
