Transducer Specification Sheet

Model Number: NE123W-04 Revision: Rev 2_0

Product Line: Peerless Platinum Date: 9-Jul-10

Product Description:

This 4 inch 4 ohm member of the NE family has leading-edge transducer technology
packaged in a cutting edge, stylistic design. The woofers in this family feature an
innovative cast aluminium basket design which minimizes acoustic reflections
inside the driver, through large basket windows and sculpted basket spokes. The
basket also is designed to act as a highly coupled heat sink to the Neodymium-Iron-
Boron magnet (NdFeB) motor, so as to improve power handling capacity. An
additional heat sink is available to provide extra thermal protection if needed. The
cone and dust cap are constructed of natural wood fiber material with proprietary
coating formulas & processes, so as to yield high clarity products. The cone
designs
g also utilize p pentacone technologygy for improved
p frequency
q y response.
p The
voice coil bobbin is titanium, for improved performance. The FEA-designed motor
features copper caps to minimize inductance and extend performance to high
frequencies. Rounding out the design is a 4-way terminal block connector, for ease
of electrical connection.
