Stright from the website of some of if not the most proclaimed drivers on earth..
"Cone
Like other Legatia SE midrange designs, you will
find no composite or metal cone materials used on
the L8SE, as our approach to point-sourcing is to
allow the Legatia SE midbass/midrange driver to
effectively play into middle and upper midrange
frequencies. The Legatia L8SE is a cone-type driver
consisting of a proprietary hybrid paper diaphragm
with extremely low moving mass. Paper is widely
acknowledged as the best-damping material, as
it provides the near optimum balance of strength
and weight. The cone has been treated with a
water resistant element at the rear to accommodate
door mounting, or other areas prone to occasional
contact with liquid. The cone design offers a wide
dispersion pattern to make for flexible installation
and speaker location. The Legatia L8SE has an
outstanding extended frequency response; the
usable frequency range of this driver exceeds seven
complete octaves of usable bandwidth on-axis (40
Hz – 5,000+ Hz). Even off-axis, the L8SE faithfully
recreates more than five full octaves of information,
for the ultimate midrange/full-range driver."
