The DD VO-XN drivers continue the Voice Optimized tradition of blending the latest in Hi-Fidelity technology with the qualities of high-end Pro Audio to produce a tonally smooth, low distortion frequency response over a wide bandwidth through an undeniably powerful broadcast, giving listeners near and far a gratifying interaction with loud and clear audio. These midbass drivers can cover the critical frequency area from below 100Hz to 20kHz, making system design easy. They include exclusive adventure ready design features, and offer major power and performance enhancements.
All VO-XN models use long fiber pressed cones made with water-resistant, synthetic resin to achieve both the unyielding rigidity and ultra-light moving mass necessary for a highly sensitive frequency response, while the curvilinear design of the cone profile ensures tonal smoothness into the upper octaves.
The VO-XN drivers feature a unique double neo, double shorting ring motor focusing an intense magnetic field through the voice coil gap. This CnC machined motor is the state of the art in technology and optimizes low overall weight, high sensitivity, and achieves exceptional performance through three main, multi-faceted heat dissipation enhancements. First is the dual purpose aluminum disk between the speaker frame and motor. This works as an outer shorting ring to keep inductance low and it functions as a highly effective upper motor heat sink to lower coil temperatures. Second, this aluminum disk has 4 air channel grooves acting as the speaker’s Free Flow Cooling System, which forces the mechanically heated air out of the system by continuously cycling cooler air around the voice coil wire. Third, for even greater performance, a second, machined aluminum heat sink has been rear mounted to the double neo motor for maximum long term thermal out flow.
