● Improved high-end extension
► The low-pass lter in a standard crossover network is basically just a coiled conductive wire with an iron core –very
similar to the design of a voice coil. When the inductance of the voice coil increases, it begins to lter out notes at
the top of the midwoofer’s frequency range. Our copper shorting sleeve eliminates these variations in inductance,
allowing the woofer to play as it was intended.
● Decreased risk of overheating
► In addition to the positive impact the shorting sleeve has on the speaker’s sound quality, it also acts as an effective
heat sink to carry heat away from the voice coil, which contributes to improved performance and durability.
If it’s so great, why don’t others use it?
Where we see an opportunity to build a better product, other manufacturers see an opportunity to maximize prots.
Shorting sleeves require additional materials and add complexity to the manufacturing process. Rather than skimp on
the shorting sleeve and make inferior midwoofers, we ultimately decided to create a masterpiece. The most
experienced engineering team in the industry has painstakingly designed our X-Series components, and we rmly
believe that you will hear the difference.
