Just saw this advertisement but no data to find online:
When this motor structure is anything like the 12" XL driver ... I want it badly for the 8"! And of course a wide range 10" would also be very useful.
Looking forward to HighEnd drivers for a good price, hope they can keep up with the high expectations.

The standard SB15/17 share the same 100mm diameter magnet with the raised copper cap (“extended copper sleeve on pole piece for low inductance and low distortion”)
L magnet appears to have a larger diameter magnet, which would give a small (1-2dB) boost in sensitivity.
From the image it would appear that it is 110mm diameter, but I hope they didn't have to manufacture a new magnet just for a few new models.
Of course it could be one of their existing 120mm diameter magnet lines..
Thank you @USXX

The larger motor system for the SB17NRX2L35 uses a 120 mm ferrite magnet. This motor system is not used by any other driver in our standard product line.
Amazing!
I see the datasheets are up!

Ulrik,
Hope you are travelling OK in the strange Q2 of C21.

I do not see the new version being better. It has less xmax, and the other thing is the magnet has some additional cooling, that is all.
Where to look to see an improvement?

I don't get it also.
Less stroke, much lower Qes, stiffer suspension/higher Fs --> EBP = ~160. Would prefer the "old" one much more for midwoofer duty.
This is more a kickbass from the parameters, will make no low bass. But for this I would prefer the SB Audience 6MW150D by a margin, or other "Pro" woofers.

As a capable mid from ~100 Hz in large 3/4 ways ? To handle more power situated above 1-2 SB34NRXLs? Good wide dispersion all the way up to 4 kHz, but then this not really symmetrical breakup...worse than metal cones...let's wait some distortion measurements....
Like anything, I would use it to strengths and avoid the weaknesses.
The SB17 has a cone diameter of just around 11cm, despite a larger frame of 17cm. The voice coil height and magnet gap height configuration make it appear like the excursion is slightly reduced. But the soft parts ie. suspension/spider has always been a limiting factor, so amplitude modulation distortion would go up as excursion gets significant eg. >3mm
Here it is in a 21cm wide cabinet for 4pi:
2dB higher sensitivity in an enclosure 1/3rd the size ?
I'll take that, and use it between 120Hz and 500Hz crossover to 4" + 1" tweeter (or 4" coax)... and roll subs below 120Hz...

When a small volume is given the C35 can't use it's lower bass extension. Take the higher sensitivity and a proper tuning.
Making a 2.5 way Atmos satellite would be a great use.

Of topic: how realistically high can SB34NRXL play? 400Hz? I am wandering about passive crossover with realistic parts.
