Features
SoloKön
is an ultra high performance composite, which
remains rigid, minimizes cone flex and lowers harmonic
distortion. The SoloKön consists of a unique one-piece,
aluminum vapor-deposit material that moves as a light
weight piston, exhibiting power and control.
Rear Cone Brace integrates into the SoloKön with a
continuous contact perimeter weld, which offers unmatched
strength and resistance to deformation under pressure.
Increased 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 UV protection and gives the SoloKön
maximum EXmax (effective excursion) potential.
Stitched Surround adds a mechanical fastener to the
chemical adhesives. This duo prevents the cone and surround
from separating in the harshest conditions.
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.
Perimeter Venting in the BAM relieves pressure from
under the spider, supports a linear excursion, and helps
dissipate heat from the voice coil and motor structure.
Dual Ultra-Length Voice Coils sustain enormous cone
excursion and provide flexible impedance matching options.
High-Temp Polyimide Film Voice Coil Former
improves sonic and conductive properties, and prevents
thermal-electrical meltdown.
One-Piece Uniplate
with Vented Hyper-Extended
Pole Piece and Backplate
1. Optimizes heat transfer efficiency for cooler operation
and maximum power handling ability.
2. Eliminates erratic magnetic flux from the voice-coil gap.
3. Releases pressure under the suspension for uniform
cone movement and responsive low bass.
4. Prevents the voice-coil from bottoming out and
corresponding damage.
Sleeved High-Power Tinsel Lead Wires eliminate
broken leads and power loss, due to the common use of
“insufficient-gauge” lead wires. The lead wires are terminated
with multiple polymer-based strain-relieving mechanical
fasteners.
Spring-Loaded Nickel Plated Terminals flawlessly
connect medium to heavy gauge speaker wire to the sleeved
high-power tinsel lead wires.
