OCTOBER 2023
TW030WA23/24 are upgraded versions of the previous models TW030WA13/14.
For new designs/applications please use models TW030WA23/24.

  • Graphene reinforced textile dome with increased high-frequency extension, consistency, and temperature rating
  • 30 mm voice coil design with high power handling, and low resonance frequency
  • Copper clad center pole yielding very low voice coil inductance for reduced distortion and increased high frequency output
  • Vented through to a damped rear chamber for low resonance frequency and low distortion
  • Rear heat sink for increased long term power handling
  • Vented voice coil former for reduced distortion and compression
  • Copper-clad aluminium voice coil wire offering lower moving mass for improved efficiency and transient response
  • Built-in cavities under dome/edge to equalize pressure - for lower distortion and lower resonance frequency
  • Flexible lead wires for higher power handling and larger excursion
  • Gold plated terminals to prevent oxidation and ensure long-term reliable connection
  • Delivered with foam gasket attached for hassle-free mounting and secure cabinet sealing

Measured in infinite baffle.

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.
