Sound leaves the speaker in the form of a wave, through the air, and enters your year, where the eardrum picks up the vibrations of the wave and sends a signal to your brain which interprets the vibrations as sound.

Why does your speakers vibrate when it is to loud?

Because you have them too loud. It will ruin your speakers if you keep it up. Actually, they always vibrate - it is the conversion of electrical signals to sound waves that causes the cone of a speaker to move back and forth rapidly, creating the sound wave that we hear. If the vibrate is more of a 'buzz', then the speakers are being pushed beyond their capacity, and will fail, as the original poster noted. Sound IS vibration. The sound waves hit your ear, and they cause your ear muscles to vibrate back and forth, and small organs convert this physical movement back into electrical energy which your brain then recognizes as sound. Sound can not travel in a vaccuum, it needs air or another medium to travel through.
