Finally, there’s a subwoofer
driver that just might be stronger
than your biggest amplier. With
an almost inconceivable power
handling capacity of 2400 watts
program, the Lo Max has more
real world power handling than any
other commercially available sound
reinforcement loudspeaker. A no
compromise design combines this
power capacity with high efciency,
excellent frequency response and
low distortion for revolutionary
performance. It even works well in
compact enclosures.
DESIGN
The Lo Max utilizes the same strong
Kevlar
®
composite cone and dustcap
used in the Low Rider
®
series.
The cone is strong and tough, and
uses an innovative asymmetrical-M
surround for superior excursion and
motion control.
High quality gold on brass spring
plunger terminals accepting large
gauge wire are attached to large
diameter, high-current tinsel leads
with silver solder to withstand high
currents, high temperatures and long
excursion. The tinsel termination is
coated with an elastomer material to
improve ex life.
The massive 4” diameter voice coil
uses polyamide insulated copper
ribbon wire, edge wound and
bonded onto an incredibly durable
and heat resistant polyamide
composite former. With a winding
length of 1.150”, the long coil
has much more surface area to
dissipate heat, and its increased
length drives the cone to a far
higher excursion. The coil is over
coated with a tough thermoset
epoxy for added durability,
abrasion resistance and heat
dissipation.
The coil wires are solderless
diffusion welded to high
conductivity OFHC copper ribbon
