The EXACT5.2 Coaxial Speaker System is the result of highly focused engineering effort. Each
element of the EXACT5.2 represents several advances in automotive speaker technology.
When the project was initiated, the following goals were established:
•
High performance sound reproduction in the automotive environment
•
Ease of installation
•
Superb ergonomics and visual appeal
•
High output capability
•
Ability to “tailor” sound to each vehicle
Through extensive testing and development, the EXACT5.2 has been designed to provide
extremely consistent on and off-axis response in the automobile. The high output capability and
low frequency extension of the EXACT5.2 are atypical of 5

” drivers due to the excursion
capabilities of the EXACT 5 and the steep crossover slopes of the EXACT5.2X.
These efforts have resulted in an extremely flexible speaker system that performs flawlessly in a
variety of installation locations in virtually any vehicle.
EXACT5.2
DESIGN
EXACT5.2 Midrange / Woofer
The EXACT5.2 represents a departure from typical midrange/midbass drivers by combining
massive midbass and exceptionally smooth midrange.
•
Copper Inductance Cap for smoother midrange response and lower distortion
•
Natural Fiber Cone designed for optimum rigidity and damping with minimal “coloration”.
25mm Soft Dome Neodymium Tweeter
The EXACT5.2's tweeter is an ultra-high performance 25mm Neodymium tweeter designed to
deliver outstanding high frequency reproduction.
•
Fourth-generation Neodymium Magnetic Assembly providing performance comparable or
superior to tweeters three times the size.
•
Specially-treated Textile Dome for a natural, smooth response to 20 kHz.
•
Ferrofluid-immersed Voice Coil enhances heat dissipation
EXACT5.2X Passive Crossover Network
The EXACT5.2X Passive Crossover represents a new concept in crossover philosophy. The
EXACT5.2X crossover consists of high quality, multi-element components with two switchable
functions. First is a three position tweeter level control. Second, is a two position midrange
“presence” control. The combination of each allows for a multitude of control options. Dual inputs
allow for multi-channel amp operation of woofer and tweeter circuits.
•
24 dB/octave Acoustic Summation Crossover Slopes
•
Variable Tweeter and Midrange Controls for added flexibility
•
Dual Inputs for multi-amp operation and further flexibility
•
Dynamic Tweeter Level Control allows for improved power handling and continuous output
•
Ultra-low DCR Inductors for minimal signal loss (High power Air-core in woofer path)
•
Mylar Film Capacitors to ensure low saturation and accuracy in the high frequencies
