Most speakers use magnetic fields. Tweaters may be piezoelectric, but not likely a woofer.
Magnetic antennae are usually just based on a conductive loop, using inductive pickup. There are other ways to detect fields, though I guess it's just the inductive loop.
I would think that explaining technology doesn't usually help any marketing efforts, so they wouldn't bother. It might just frighten some people to think of these fields within close proximity.
Hope the heart gets better. Life's too precious.
