Rather than just heari

ng a blurry

wall of music, you can expect

to hear stages like the

Here are s

o

me basic drawings

of common problems in a typical

vehicle…

In this 1st picture, it is easy to see why the speaker closest to

you will be louder and wh

y the center of t

he soundstage will not

be in the center of the vehic

le… When speakers get further

away from you, you become more

centered. Let’s take another

look at the first picture. Fo

r easy

math, we’r

e going to assume

that the left speaker is

4’ from

the left ear in the lower door cor-

ner. The right speak

er is 6’ wh

ich is 50% further and yields a

24” pathlength difference. If

we moved both of those speakers

up about 2’ into the kickpanel, the left speaker may now be 6’

away, but t

he right speaker is on

ly 7’ away. We just reduced

our pathlength

Common Features

Amongst

All 3 Drivers

Motor

Assembl

y

These unique motors use ultra strong Neo-

dymium magnets which help to yield high the

BL required for great tr

ansient response. (No

huge, impractical standard Ferrite magnets

that are har

d

to fit in some applications!)

Voice Coil &

Terminals

All voic

e

coils use 2-layer copper clad

aluminum wire for higher power handling and

heat dissipation.

Suspen

sion

The multi-roll Cone

x spid

ers (not on tweeters)

are symmetrical in design and has woven tin-

sel leads t

o

the voice coil. The surrounds are

made of high-loss Butyl rubber. This mar-

riage of our chosen suspension component

s

allows the driver to be very taut and accur

a

te

from the midbass range to upper

midrange

frequencies.

Basket

Injection-molded PPS (Polyphenylene Sul-

fide) was used to lower resonance frequen-

cies. If you drop a metal ruler and a wooden

ruler, the metal ruler has horrific "ping" reso-

nance while the wooden ruler has a dead

"thud" sound. Since baskets can’t be made

out of wood for durability reasons, this com-

posite material was the proper way to go.
