Do you mean transmitters or conductors of sound? Transmitters can be just about anything capable of creating sound waves OR of moving [silent, or signal-carrying and sound-carrying] atoms, electrical and electro-magnetic (E-M) matter or other particle mass from one place to another (e.g., through mediums such as water or other liquid, air, gas, plasma, and dense mass such as walls and buildings) at or near the speed of sound, which is about 0.333 km/s (0.20 mile/s). There are a number of archived entries and other sources which can provide answers on the nature of sound and aspects of its conductance.

When you say "transmit", you might mean either create the sound or

carry the sound from one place to another.

-- Any vibrating object can create sound.

-- Any material substance can conduct sound from one place to another.
