There has been a lot of discussion about cone drivers for multi entry horns but I still haven't seen any mid drivers that look optimised for horn load - with the exception of some JBLs.
Anyone know any other drivers that fit this spec.?
Basically a cone version of a compression driver.
That would typically be short coil, extended field for maximum efficiency.
Lots of inductance minimisation/flux stabilisation would be nice too, copper plated pole piece, aluminium plate on top and conductive sleeve inside.
Also aluminium ribbon voice coil (or maybe square wire if two layer inside/outside) for minimum mass to extend the top end.
A carbon voice coil former to further reduce the mass seems obvious but I've never seen this in any driver so a bit much to expect.
