Sundown X-10 / X-15 / X-18 Prototypes Here

Jacob said before somewhere these are rated for 1250W RMS.

and there i stand corrected, i remember a while ago the x line was supposed to be a 1k... but we all know how that goes.

I got a bit more ambitious with the design -- I believe we'll see around 30-31mm of Klippel verified one-way linear travel from these as well... once I get the report back I'll post it up. A similar topology over-hung we did with a 15mm shorter coil Klippel tested at 24mm one-way and we have 7.5mm more over-hang so should measure out right at 30mm or so if all scales well

I am very excited about this line... a truly high excursion line at reasonable prices. I had a very particular vision with this line in mind -- I was not happy with simply making an evolutionary step from the SA line as our previous prototype from a few years back was. I wanted a fully new platform line to delivery truly GREAT performance. I think once the final specs are released and people see / hear these they will be a big hit.

Another cool thing about the X series motor is that it can be pretty easily re-coned with many popular 3" coils from custom sources such as FixMySpeaker in case someone tears one up and wants to go that route Many 8-layer flats will fit the gap.

The X-12s are out for magnetizing right now; haven't shipped the 10,15,18 yet so here are some pics of their depths :

What size enclosure do you anticipate the X-10 will require?

Look beast.

[sundownz]

Until there is a Klippel report done I can give you several ratings of x-max that aren't as accurate; but will prefer to get the Klippel result for the "official" x-max figure on it

[sundownz]

What size enclosure do you anticipate the X-10 will require?

You can go nearly as small as what the current models require; but not quite -- so as small as 1.25 or so. One of the benefits of having SO much mechanical capacity is that if your box needs to be bigger you won't hurt the driver -- you could go much larger without worry than the older designs.

When will i have the option to see a price! LOving how these look

Just got them in and QC tested them all on the bench; very happy so far. Still need to get them fully charged then run preliminary specs (have to send them out to do so as our magnetizer isn't in yet) -- but we are still stiffening up the surrounds so those will only be ~80% accurate initially.

This is also the first look at our tooled 18" spider adapter piece !

On to the photos (video of the 18" is uploading) :

when will these be for sale?

You have the option right now. You obviously didn't read the thread. See post #11 in this thread.
