Key Features
- DMA-Optimised Motor System: Proprietary Dynamic Motor Analysis technology ensures precise, linear cone movement with ultra-low distortion across the full dynamic range, delivering a 0.75-inch excursion capability.
- Elevated Frame Cooling Technology: JL Audio’s patented design channels high-velocity air directly across the voice coil top plate, dramatically improving power handling and long-term reliability.
- Polypropylene Cone Technology: An injection-moulded, mineral-filled polypropylene cone with rubber surround provides crisp, strong bass output with the rigidity to handle extended high-volume play.
- FCAM Technology: The Floating Cone Attach Method ensures proper surround geometry and dynamic voice coil alignment for superior excursion control.
- Overroll Surround Technology: Maximises cone area by utilising space wasted in conventional speaker designs, enabling massive excursion without sacrificing output.
- PVAC Technology: Pole-Vent Airflow Control directs and accelerates internal airflow to reduce voice coil temperature, preserving audio fidelity and driver longevity.
- Rigid Cast-Alloy Frame: Solid cast-alloy construction eliminates structural flex under serious power loads, protecting sound quality at all output levels.
- Terminal Jumper System: Dual voice coils can be wired in series or parallel using the included jumper system, offering flexible impedance configurations to match your amplifier.
- Custom ABS Trim Ring: The included black ABS trim ring can be custom painted to seamlessly integrate with any interior colour scheme.
