Paper Cone Fullrange
The Exotic F8 X1-08 is an 8" fullrange utilising a special paper cone embedded with Papyrus fibres to optimise stiffness and damping, whilst an optimally matched whizzer cone extends high frequency beyond 10kHz.
A special foam rubber surround reduces mass by 40% compared to conventional rubber surrounds, resulting in higher sensitivity and excellent damping properties and unlike less stable foam materials, will offer decades of trouble free operation.
The new and proprietary spider design dramatically improves performance of this critical suspension part and by combining an extremely open weave with a new resin formulation, all noises normally generated by the friction of the threads rubbing together are virtually eliminated. Additionally the open weave is highly acoustically transparent, minimising the reflections and resonances associated with conventional spider designs.
The magnet system uses an Alnico V ring magnet for high sensitivity and excellent stability, whilst massive copper rings above and below the magnet gap lower distortion due to eddy currents and flux modulation.
A stiff and stable injection moulded zinc basket keeps the critical components in perfect alignment and generous windows both above and below the spider reduce sound reflection, air flow noise and cavity resonances to a minimum.
