An electrodynamic acoustic transducer, is disclosed, which comprises a frame and/or a housing, a membrane, at least one coil and a magnet system. The coil in a cross sectional view with a coil axis being part of the sectional plane comprises a plurality of conductive layers formed by an electrical conductor of the coil. The electrical conductor has a rectangular cross section in said cross sectional view, wherein a longer side of the rectangular cross section is substantially perpendicular to the loop axis. Furthermore, a method for manufacturing an electrodynamic acoustic transducer of the proposed kind is disclosed. According to this method, a stack of conductive layers is made from the electrical conductor by stacking of separate pieces of the electrical conductor and electrically connecting the stacked separate pieces and/or by folding of the electrical conductor.
