- Very rigid aluminium cone to ensure piston motion at high levels and for better heat transfer at high continuous power levels
- Vented voice coil former for reduced distortion and compression
- Vented center pole with dual flares for reduced noise level at large cone excursions
- Vented chassis for lower air flow speed reducing audible distortion
- Heavy-duty black fiber glass voice coil bobbin to reduce mechanical losses resulting in better dynamic performance and low-level details
- Large motor system with 1½” voice coil diameter and 110mm magnet for better control and efficiency
- Built-in alu field-stabilizing ring for reduced high-level distortion
- Long linear stroke motor for reduced distortion at high levels
- Linear suspension with specially designed CONEX damper (spider) for long durability under extreme operating conditions
- 4-layer voice coil for increased control and better small-cabinet performance
- Gold plated terminals to prevent oxidation for long-term reliable connection
- Sealing gasket pre-attached for hassle-free mounting and secure cabinet sealing

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 14.1 VRMS. The unit is not burned in before shipping.
