Features
CIMP
™
(Curvilinear Injection-Molded Polypropylene
Woofer Cones) is a high performance composite, which
remains rigid, minimizes cone flex and lowers harmonic
distortion. The CIMP
™
consists of a one-piece,
injection-molded polypropylene material that moves as a
piston, exhibiting power and control.
New Enhanced BAM (Basket and Motor) Assembly
utilizes a high strength steel basket, features a low-profile open
design, and provides a solid foundation for the
precision-aligned motor assembly.
New Santoprene ™ Surround Radius allows extended
cone excursion for additional bass output and higher SPL.
Santoprene
™
is the next generation of surround material.
It offers unmatched acoustical dampening and UV protection,
and gives the KS-Series System Components cone maximum
EXmax
™
(effective excursion) potential.
Flexible Mounting of the KS5.2, which includes an 6” x 8”
(15.2 cm x 20.3 cm) mounting adapter, and the KS5.2, KS6.2
and KS65.2, which have coaxial mounts for the tweeters,
enable the KS-Series System Components to accommodate
most installations.
Newly Designed Passive Crossover Network allows a
seamless transition between the midrange and tweeter drivers.
High-Power Tinsel Lead Wires eliminate broken leads and
power loss, due to the common use of “insufficient-gauge” lead
wires.
Aluminum Dome Tweeter with Neodymium Magnet
provides a smooth high frequency response with quick, detailed
and spatially-correct imaging.
Felt Damping Plug behind the Tweeter’s Diaphragm
dissipates standing waves, quickens spectral decay and
improves the transient response of the driver.
High-Temp Polyimide Film Voice Coil Former
improves sonic and conductive properties, and prevents
thermal-electrical meltdown.
Ferro-Fluid
™
cooled tweeter voice-coil extends the high
frequency transducer’s life span.
Kicker Marine Ready models come with water resistant
mounting hardware. This enables the KS6.2 to replace stock
boat speakers without rusting your ship.
