TECHNICAL DESIGN FEATURES Midrange Features PVA Treated Cone The lightweight paper cones are treated with PVA (PolyVinyl Acetate) for environmental stability and increased rigidity. This treatment promotes smooth midrange performance and low frequency extension free of distortion. THE RESULT: Strong and lightweight high performance cones. Vented Pole Piece The vented pole piece by design, ensures proper ventilation to cool the voice coil and maintains lower operating temperatures. This incre

Tweeter Features Neodymium Magnets The high ionic compound of neodymium enables a smaller tweeter magnet assembly to be used as opposed to the much larger ferrite magnets that are commonly used in speaker manufacturing. THE RESULT: An efficient magnet which allows smaller tweeter construction. Magnetic Fluid Cooling Magnetic fluid is a synthetic liquid consisting of microscopic magnetic particles. The fluid has four times the thermal conductivity as air which makes it an ideal cooling agent

Optical Compression Circuit The supplied passive crossovers utilize an optical compression circuit for tweeter protection. This protection circuit absorbs the destructive signal caused when the amplifier's output is clipped. This greatly increases the power handling capability and the reliability of the tweeter. THE RESULT: Increased tweeter reliability under harsh conditions. Passive Filter Bypass The TX-4186 utilizes an extra screw terminal on the crossover housing which allows the tweet
