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
|
|
|
|
- Balanced Drive motor structure for optimal drive force symmetry resulting in largely reduced even order harmonic distortion
- Large linear stroke, ensuring low distortion at high output levels
- Rigid paper cones to ensure piston motion even at high levels - for reduced distortion
- Rigid steel chassis’ with extensive venting for lower air flow speed reducing audible distortion
- Heavy-duty fiber glass voice coil former to reduce mechanical losses resulting in better dynamic performance and low-level details
- Large motor structures for better control and power handling
- Built-in alu field-stabilizing rings for reduced distortion at high levels
- Low-loss suspension (high Qm) for better reproduction of details and dynamics
- Black plated motor parts for better heat transfer to the surrounding air
- Conex spider for better durability under extreme conditions
- 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 20 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 10/14.1 VRMS (4/8 ohm version). The unit is not burned in before shipping.
