Any news from CES 2007 yet?

[slogan2112]

I am anxiously waiting any info from the show.

I hear there are new drivers from Morel, Jantzen Audio and SEAS. In particular the new driver from SEAS, the W16NX001, interests me. Are there others from SEAS?

Just curious, come on people, spill the beans.

The W16NX001 is based on a new chassis where we have kept the outside diameter of the chassis the same as in the 15cm, but with more effective use of the available area. A long voice coil and a new surround profile makes this a driver with long stroke capabilities.

Besides the W16NX001 we are showing a new W22NY001. This is a 22cm with a Nextel cone. The frequency response is very nice, so it should be a good candidate for a really good 2-way speaker.

In the Prestige range we are showing two new woofers with something we have called "Reed cone". This is a new paper pulp with longer fibers added. They are called ER15RLY and ER18RNX.

We are also showing two new tweeters in the Prestige range. Based on the 27T series, but with a new neo magnetsystem and chassis with 98mm OD. 27TTFNC/GW - with a titanium dome, and 27TDFNC/GW - with a textile dome.

Finally, a tweeter in the Excel range with a magnesium dome. This was also showed last year, but we have not been able to produce it before now. T29MF001

All products are either produced or scheduled to be produced very soon, so they should be available for our distributors in the near future.

Thanks Bjorn for your commentation!
About W16NX,i know it is nextel covered but is it the cone itself paper or mag?Somebody claims that W16 comes out with mag cone.

The W16NX001 has a gray magnesium cone and a copper phase plug, like the W18EX001.
But the chassis is Nextel painted.

It will be available in both 4 and 8ohms.

Thank you Bjorn for keeping us up to date.

I was about to start a project with the W15cy001 as a midrange but wanted to find out more about the W16NX first. Do they have the same hole pattern? I already have the W15s so I could start and swap out latter if they are the same.

When do you expect data sheets will be available?

Thanks again,

Scott

Pictures,pictures!!!

The W15CY001 is a better midrange unit. The W16NX001 is better for small 2-way speakers. We have made a system with one 4ohm W16 and a Millennium tweeter that works really well. We also have a MMT with two 8ohm W16 coming.

The hole pattern is almost the same. The W16 has the holes at Ø137mm - the W15 has the holes at Ø136.5. Should not be a problem. But keep in mind that the W16 will need a larger hole in the box. To allow for a larger cone we had to move the spokes outwards.

The datasheets will soon be posted on our web page, but send me an e-mail and I'll get some info for you.
