Adire Audio's new motor (Parthenon)

At the 2004 CES we'll be showing a 24" square baffle unit, with a Qts of 0.72 and an Fs of 7 Hz. Flat anechoic response to 6 Hz. And capable of over 66 liters of linear air displacement! That will generate reference level (121 dB SPL) output at 20 Hz, when sitting naked in a room - no room gain, no baffle, no box required. The first true dipole driver (not sub - no baffle, remember!) that can do reference outputs. With flat output to the single digits. How's that for a driver?

😱 Now this is goddam low fs, sealed box lover save your bucks:bawling:

Skinnyboy, I think the pionneer monsters are just been stunned by those adire with 12'' of Xmax isn't it 😀

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.


looks interesting to say the least. I know adire has both enthuists and enemies here, anyone wanna discuss this monster?

electronic equalization is not claimed , is not claimed, is not claimed, it is not claimed,
electronic equalization is not claimed , is not claimed, is not claimed, it is not claimed,

so what are you talking about ?

p.s. I plead the 5th for such unsubtlety.

By this point, Dan's out of the world of audio and into the world of industrial linear motors. Provided he can find a springy suspension to hold the voice coil, he is to the point where he could effectively market an electrically-operated sonic jackhammer that would probably just power through concrete and stuff.

oo... I saw my name.. 😀 the 5000 watt pioneer subs have like a 12mm x-max.... I fail to see how they couldn't be beaten.... on, maybe it was more than 12mm.. but they claimed to hold the world record for the highest SPL... hmmm 9 of them....
