  1. SURROUND GEOMETRY: Compression molded NBR surround uses FEA optimized roll geometry to maximize excursion without sacrificing cone surface area. Works with conventional driver mounting holes and techniques.
  2. CONE/DUSTCAP: Injection molded, carbon filled expanded polypropylene with aluminum deposition used to dramatically increase stiffness/weight ratio. Creates overall stiffer and lighter diaphragm assembly.
  3. VOICE COIL: 4" diameter black anodized aluminum former with 220° aluminum flat wound ribbon wire. Designed for high power handling and large linear excursion without unnecessary addition of mass.
  4. SPIDER: Nomex/polycotton hybrid material with integral tinsel lead wire. Allows for high excursion without spider or tinsel lead fatigue. FEA optimized progressive roll geometry provides huge linear excursion capability.
  5. TERMINAL: Die-cast zinc co-molded with ABS plastic housing. Nickel plated 8 gauge compression inputs with two additional sets of 8 gauge inputs using set- screw termination. Installer advantage‹create clean, proper wiring of DVC woofers and/or multiple woofer installs.
  6. T-YOKE ASSEMBLY: Hot forged, CNC machined 1008 low carbon steel yoke with CNC machined 6063 aluminum shorting ring. Reduced eddy currents and flux modulation with additional benefit of improved heat conduction from voice coil to T-Yoke assembly. Woofer is capable of extremely high excursion while maintaining low distortion.
  7. FRONT PLATE ASSEMBLY: Hot forged, CNC machined 1008 low carbon steel front plate with extruded 6063 aluminum heat sinks. Maximized heat conduction from voice coil over entire wind width.
  8. SPIDER PLATEAU VENTING: Air flow is directed past the voice coil and heat sink then forced out through vents in the basket. Maximizes heat convection from voice coil and heat sinks.
