In related art, the treble unit and bass unit of the coaxial speaker usually each includes an independent vibration system and an independent magnetic circuit system, and the structure of the coaxial speaker is complex. The overall height of the coaxial speaker composed of the treble unit and the bass unit is increased, which leads to inconvenient installation due to the high height and reduces the applicability of the product.
