The following section describes the methods used in constructing the Series 1 Woofers and how each was optimized.

Black Anodized Aluminum Voice Coil Former – To improve the reliability of the voice coil, it is wound on a black, anodized aluminum former. Because aluminum is an efficient thermal conduc- tor, it keeps heat from concentrating in the voice coil during normal use.

Vented Pole Piece – To allow operation at reasonably high power levels, ventilation is needed. This is done through the use of a vented pole piece. The venting allows fresh air to circulate and remove the built up heat form the voice coil assembly.

PVA Treated Paper Cone – The cone is constructed from a light- weight, rigid paper material. The cone is treated with Polyvinyl Acetate which lowers the resonance and reduces distortion. The PVA also reduces damage from the harsh environmental conditions typi- cal of a car interior.
