Key features:
- EXTENDED FREQUENCY RESPONSE
- 1k carbon-fiber nomex core honeycomb cone
- Ideal for high quality hi-fi applications, studio monitors
Design notes:
The 8FHM is a high efficiency, (89 dB 1watt / 1 meter) 8-inch mid-woofer with incredibly linear frequency response characteristics and ultra low harmonic distortion artifacts. The 8FHM uses a lightweight 1k carbon fiber material, assembled from both sides of Nomex honey-comb core. This unique cone provides the ideal weight to strength ratio. The rubber surround has been FEM modeled and optimized. The honeycomb cone with high end 1k carbon fiber material provides remarkable strength, while pushing the cone break-up modes to high frequencies, significantly extending the working range of the speaker.
The cone
The 8FHM cone is made using 1k carbon fiber hone-comb, placed from both sides of Nomex core, while the dustcap is made off hard-anodization reinforced aluminum. The dustcap shape and the hard anodizing are further improving the high frequency behavior.
