Vibe CVEN6SW-V5
The Vibe CVEN6SW-V5 is a dedicated 6.5″ (165 mm) midbass driver. Vibe calls it a midbass rather than a mid-woofer because it does one job: it covers the band between the subwoofer and the midrange. That lets the driver be specified very differently from a generic 6.5″ that has to do everything – a 17 oz Y35 ferrite motor, an aluminium voice coil former, a DuPont aramid spider and a pressure-cast aluminium chassis.
Key Features
- Cast Aluminium Chassis: Precision pressure-cast from marine-grade aluminium – resonance-free, no basket flex under sustained excursion
- 17 oz Ferrite Motor: Hand-bonded Y35 ferrite motor (100 x 40 x 15 mm) for relentless cone control and long-term thermal stability
- Aluminium Voice Coil Former: Conducts heat away from the 12 mm, 2-layer copper windings – no compression or thermal sag
- DuPont Aramid Spider: 108 mm hand-tensioned aramid spider, heat-stable and fatigue-resistant across millions of cycles
- Damped Paper Cone: Long-fibre pressed paper cone with woven carbon fibre dust cap and high-compliance rubber surround
- Quality Details: Integrated EVA foam gasket and bespoke spring-loaded gold tone terminals
