A speaker is a paper cone attached to an electromagnet which can make it move. When moving, it creates sound waves that we can hear.

Conversely, if we make sound waves, it could move the paper cone a little bit. This in turn creates a tiny bit of energy through the electromagnet. We can measure this and convert it to digital sound.
