Description
The 15ND930 is a high power, high output, low frequency woofer which meets
the most stringent requirements in high quality professional transducers.
The high level of performance and sound quality have been achieved by exploiting
the most advanced technologies available today.
The neodymium magnet assembly developed by Eighteen Sound engineers assures
high flux concentration, low power compression and excellent heat exchange,
since the external magnet configuration is considerably more efficient than
traditional under-pole magnet topology. This results in high levels of force
factor and power handling with an optimum power to weight ratio.
The direct contact between the large heat sink and basket, together with the
magnetic structure, represent a fundamental improvement in thermal connection
and heat dissipation. Hence, power handling capabilities are increased and
power compression lowered.
The deep profile curvilinear cone, created from a special high strength wood
pulp, has been designed to achieve the best possible linearity within its
frequency range. The cone surround, made from a linen material is highly resistant
to aging and fatigue. The in-house developed cone treatment is a humidity
repellent and significantly dampens bell mode resonances.
The 75mm edge-wound state-of-the-art voice coil assembly is wound on a strong
fiberglas former to improve force transmission and power handling.
The already low distortion and sound quality are further improved by Double
Demodulating Rings (DDR) that flatten impedance and phase with a constant
power transfer.
Thanks to its versatility, the 15ND930 can be used in 2-way compact reflex
enclosures with a 1.4" compression driver, in multiway systems and in
high loading sub woofers as small as 70 lt (compact reflex, bandpass and horn
loaded configurations).
A special coating applied to both the top and back plates makes the 15ND930
far more resistant to the corrosive effects of salts and oxidization.
