The quadruple spider design keeps the voice coil in perfect alignment up to highest cone excursions, while the progressive deflection characteristics protect the surround from failure when the cone is driven to its mech. NomexTM material stands out with its unparalleled durability against mechanical failure, aging or any other degradation based on physical strain. 17. 5mm 17. 5mm (one way) (one way) 510 cm2 1785cm3 2. 36 mH (series) 84. 2 dB/ 1W/1m 855 cm2 2993 cm3 2. 40 mH (series) 85. 0dB/ 1W/1m 4-Layer WouND CCaW VoICe CoIL A 4-layer wound copper clad alumimum double voice coil with extended winding height provides the necessary thermal power handling for high SPL output, but keeps the moving mass low for increased effi- SPL-X4 Woofer SPeCIfICatIoN SHeet MouNtING DIMeNSIoNS e12SPL-X4 Mounting Cutout Diameter Rear Mounting Clearance (Mounting Depth) 284 mm 216 mm e15SPL-X4 358 mm 249 mm eNCLoSure CoNStruCtIoN / CaBINet DaMPING / BreaK-IN INfo Always use at least 25mm or thicker MDF or birch plywood to build the enclosure. Make sure all joints are well sealed, since a woofer can only reach optimum performance when mounted to an airtight cabinet! The enclosures should be damped according to their function principle: The sealed enclosure must be filled with polyfill (bonded acrylic fiber). The inner walls of the ported enclosure should be lined out with egg crate PU-foam. The sealed chamber of the bandpass enclosure has to be lined with PU-foam, while the ported chamber remains free of any damping material. Loudspeakers using spiders made of NomexTM need extra time to break-in!Out of the box, the suspension sytem of any SPL-X4 woofer is extremely stiff. To achieve optimum low bass response, this EMPHASER woofer model will need approximately two weeks of daily playing at medium playback levels.
