Hey! I have a driver idea for a custom spring reverb build. Omitting that the devil is in the detail I'll keep it as simple as possible.
A speaker output connected to a toroidal inductor with a ferrite core suspended in the center:
Would this drive the spring? Ideally the ferrite core should be radially magnetised, but those aren't readily available.
Advice would be highly appreciated.

Have you built and measured the impedance of the coil?

The field of a toroidal inductor with a high permeability core runs entirely inside the core.
So there wil be no force acting on the ferrite core attached to the spring.
