Important! Please observe that these text files for download are actual measurements of the drivers measured in infinite baffle and without any enclosure. Measuring the drivers in a finite baffle (like the baffle of most speaker cabinets) and in any size of enclosure will lead to different response curves.

FEATURES
|
|
|
|
- FEA optimized suspension for perfect symmetry, reducing even order harmonic distortion
- Balanced Drive motor with perfect force factor symmetry for reduced distortion
- Alu field-stabilizing ring inside magnet assembly for reduced distortion at high levels
- Vented voice coil former for reduced distortion and compression
- Vented chassis for lower air flow speed reducing audible distortion
- Heavy-duty black fiber glass voice coil bobbin to increase power handling and reduce mechanical losses resulting in better dynamic performance and low-level details
- Large motor system with 1.25” voice coil diameter and 80 mm magnet for better control and efficiency
- Progressive suspension with optimized compromise between linearity and soft clipping
- Suspension with CONEX damper (spider) for long durability under extreme operating conditions
- Gold plated terminals to prevent oxidation for long-term reliable connection
- Delivered with foam gasket attached to the frame for hassle-free mounting and secure enclosure sealing

Note 1
|
Measured in infinite baffle.
|
Note 2
|
Tested in free air (no cabinet).
|
Note 3
|
Measured using a semi-constant current source, nominal level 2 mA.
|
Note 4
|
Measured at 25 deg. C
|
Note 5
|
It is generally a rough simplification to assume that loudspeaker transducer voice coils exhibit the characteristics of an inductor. Instead it is a far more accurate approach to use the more advanced model often referred to as the “Wright empirical model”, also used in LEAP-4 as the TSL model (www.linearx.com), involving parameters Krm, Erm, Kxm, and Exm. This more accurate transducer model is described in a technical paper (PDF) here.
|
Note 6
|
After burn-in specifications are measured 12 hours after exiting the transducer by a 20 Hz sine wave for 2 hours at level 7.75/11 VRMS (4/8 ohm version). The units are not burned in before shipping.
