    Wavecor Speaker Driver - SW223BD03 - 8 Ohm 8¾" Alu-Cone Subwoofer

    Description
    The 8¾" transducer SW223BD03 - 8 ohm was designed specifically for high performance compact subwoofer applications where sound quality and low distortion are the priorities.

     

    Features

    • Balanced Drive motor structure for optimal drive force symmetry resulting in largely reduced even order harmonic distortion
    • Extremely large linear stroke, Xmax = ±10.7 mm, ensuring low distortion at high output levels
    • Very rigid black aluminium cone to ensure piston motion at high levels and for better heat transfer at high continuous power levels
    • Rigid die cast alu chassis with extensive venting for lower air flow speed reducing audible distortion
    • Heavy-duty black fibre glass voice coil former to reduce mechanical losses resulting in better dynamic performance and low-level details
    • Large motor with 2" voice coil diameter for better control and power handling
    • Built-in alu field-stabilizing ring for reduced distortion at high levels
    • Low-loss suspension (high Qm) for better reproduction of details and dynamics
    • Black plated cone and motor parts for better heat transfer to the surrounding air
    • Conex spider for better durability under extreme conditions
    • Gold plated terminals to ensure long-term trouble free connection

    Note 1 Measured in infinite baffle.
    Note 2 Tested in free air (no cabinet).
    Note 3 Measured using a semi-constant current source, nominal level 2 mA.
    Note 4 Measured at 20 deg. C
    Note 5 It is generally a rough simplification to assume that loudspeaker transducer voice coils exhibit the characteristics of an inductor. Instead it is a far more accurate approach to use the more advanced model often referred to as the "Wright empirical model", also used in LEAP-4 as the TSL model (www.linearx.com), involving parameters Krm, Erm, Kxm, and Exm.
    Note 6 After burn-in specifications are measured 12 hours after exiting the transducer by a 20 Hz sine wave for 2 hours at level 10/14.1 VRMS (4/8 ohm version). The unit is not burned in before shipping.
