What came first? The Speaker or the Mic?

Hopefully the mic. Otherwise people wouldn't have a use for the speaker without recordings.

But there is no purpose of the mic without speakers because there would be no way of playing back the recording? lol

Recordings were made before speakers. Look it up.

But how does that make sense. Whats the purpose of a recording if you can't play it back through a speaker?

a speaker and a mic are the same thing, they are two magnets, motion in one causes an electric signal to be sent from the other, on the other hand, if you send an electric sgnal into one it creates a sound out of the other.

Exactly. With the creation of one they made the other....
