Elevated To Perfection
The 8000 Series can be considered the direct heir to the 7000 Series. The goal was to renew a variety of speakers in itself exceptional, with the help of the latest technologies and the use of the best materials available today, always with installation versatility in mind. Key to the development of this type of car speaker system was to build on their exceptional musicality. In the 8000 Series, every detail was treated with the utmost care, from the choice of materials, the forms, construction and finishing of the baskets, to the ventilation systems of the magnets and voice coils. We have improved what was thought to be difficult to improve and we strongly believe we have laid the foundation for a new series of exceptional car speakers.
8000 Series - Woofer
Main Construction Features
• Basket made of 7000 aluminum alloy manufactured entirely by numerical control (CNC). This makes the structure very rigid and with practically zero tolerances, yielding consistent performance and maximum energy transfer from the voice coil to the cone. Moreover, there’s an increase in efficiency in the low range and absence of resonances in the medium/high range (only with Limited Edition Speakers).
• Cone and dust cap made from unpressed paper, yielding the best compromise between damping and rigidity for an extremely natural sound without colorations or alterations. A water repellent treatment also makes it suitable for applications in harsh environments.
• Oversized magnet. The high-quality magnet (Y-35) guarantees a surplus of energy that makes the excursion peaks easily reproducible by this woofer. Even at high excursions, the coil works quietly in its magnetic field.
• A careful study supported by FEM analysis allowed us to design the metal parts of the magnet in order to maximize the flow exactly around the moving coil, and make it linear throughout its entire excursion. Ventilation is ensured by a large opening at the bottom where its shape reduces turbulence noise to inaudible levels.
• The exclusively designed clamp accepts large gauge cables.
• The large diameter voice coil uses an aluminum support to better disperse the temperature. Furthermore, the entire voice coil is exposed to outside air through large slits in the basket (protected by a dust filter).
