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) or in any size of enclosure will lead to different response curves.

FEATURES

  • FEA optimized suspension for perfect symmetry, reducing even order harmonic distortion
  • Copper cap on center pole to reduce voice coil inductance and to minimize variations in voice coil inductance as a function of voice coil position
  • Rigid paper cone to ensure piston motion even at high levels
  • True full range extension to 20 kHz
  • Vented polymer chassis for lower air flow speed reducing audible distortion
  • Vented voice coil former and magnet center pole for reduced distortion and compression
  • Heavy-duty black fiber glass voice coil bobbin to reduce mechanical losses resulting in better dynamic performance and low-level details
  • Large motor with 22 mm voice coil diameter for better control and power handling
  • Low-loss suspension (high Qm) for better reproduction of details and dynamics
  • Black motor parts for better heat transfer to the surrounding air
  • New damper (spider) woven of a mix of polymers and natural fibers for improved durability
  • Gold plated terminals to ensure long-term trouble free connection
  • Delivered with foam gasket attached for hassle-free mounting and secure cabinet 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 exciting the transducer by a 20 Hz sine wave for 2 hours at level 4.0/5.65 VRMS (4/8 ohm version). The unit is not burned in before shipping.
