Features
● Surround - VIBE’s unique specially formed HighRoll™ rubber edge allows increased cone excursion whilst the narrow
design retains stronger lateral control of the cone.
● Tinsel wires - Heavy gauge tinsel wires run more freely to the voice coil via a newly formed flange. The heavier gauge
maximises full power delivery from your chosen speaker wire directly to the voice coil.
● Cone - Specially moulded absorbing PP cone – incorporates specially formed plastic shroud to firmly attach voice coil to
the cone.
● Magnet - Magnet increased in quality, power and size. With additional increase in the magnetic gap allowing bigger
performance and better voice coil cooling.
● Rubber boot - Protects the oversized magnet and integrates the basket with magnet in a more streamline fashion for
reverse mounting styling.
● T-Yoke - Extended bumped t-yoke for higher cone travel with large vented pole to greatly aid voice coil cooling.
● Dual Voice coil - Fast cooling vented aluminium formers using multilayered dual voice coils with increased 3rd generation
windings for bigger true sub bass.
● Spider - Dual flat progressive, long life conex spiders used to keep cone movement 100% lateral, even when under the
highest pressures.
● Basket - Specially designed for absolute rigidity, the VIBE angular torsion™ basket has five vented powerful arms that
cradle the cone and allow the coil to breath cool air.
● Terminals - Improved terminal for better stronger and bigger cable feeds.
● Alloy gasket - Alloy gasket executes the outer edge of the subwoofer in true VIBE style, with a carefully placed alloy CNC
VIBE badge on the cone for final sign off.
