NEO Accident

Umm my design isn't really any of those. Maybe a cross between TC and DD. First design had the steel oversaturated to the point where it was just a waste of money. Cut back the amount of N52 and upped the steel to a good level imo. I'll see how they perform when the final parts arrive. I don't see the point in using anymore neo than necessary because the price gets absurd and the average user will never be able to afford it. If the average user (with a good budget haha) can't afford a driver, who cares what it can do?

I like your philosophy.

Very good point!! Glad to see your tinkering with neo in your subs. What made you chose the n52 over lower grades?

Mostly the fact that Cascade is a daily orientated company. I don't compete and don't follow competition at all. So the neo's need to be able to dissipate heat all day long and not lose strength or fail. Lower grades would work well in a burp driver because heat won't build as quickly, but for daily pounding at high power levels a higher grade was needed.

Wait till you see the top plate on this driver haha.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

Top plate 80% of the drivers weight:crazy:
Good to see your designing for the daily guy, with a daily budget. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

Are you really going to release a neo sub? Is this going to be the V.2?

The top plate is....substantial //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Everything I release will be daily. The V.2 will be a strong contender in performance vs. price.

The Neo will be tested later this month. Probably go through a couple months of revisions, then be offered on a custom order only basis. Funny thing is, it will probably cost less than the retail of much lesser drivers.

Cool man. I can't wait to see what you have to offer. I like the idea of the neo being cheaper then the retail of most drivers. makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. Neo and cheap have never really been used int the same sentence. Well only to say that its not cheap.

ya I wouldn't say "cheap." But definitely under $1,000 per driver.

Wow I posted this cause I thought it was crazy. Then it turned to a tech discussion now we are getting future updates from Manufactures........Now I fill like a tard for saying hahahahaha this is cool hahahahaha.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Lies!!!!!

LOL

For any of you out there trying to build a neo motor, I'd want you to use extreme caution and be patient. It takes a lot of time and effort to build one correctly and not get killed in the process or lose some body parts.

If you’re just an average joe wanting to play with neo, I’d think long and hard about what you’re doing and if it’s really worth the trouble, if you have not a lot of experience with it. I can’t reinforce this idea enough. Everyone thinks it will not happen to them, but it does.

SO BE CAREFUL!

As far as other neo motors – I really believe my motor is the best on the market as it has a true top plate, that’s what has taken so long for me to master.

Here is the text from the site to explain the concept.

"After 5 years of work the Warden is finally here! The newly coming Warden is the next generation of all out SPL monsters – forget everything you’ve seen until this point. The Warden is the first True SPL subwoofer on the market that boost a steel top plate for maximum transfer of magnetic flux from the neodymium magnets to the gap which in turn equals more magnetic force to drive the cone to Extreme SPL levels. These six neodymium magnets act as one through one common top plate. Other subwoofers on the market have an aluminum top plate, which keeps the columns separated; this causes each column to independently transfer magnetic flux. This results in less SPL because the spaces between the columns do not transfer flux. For example if the Warden is say 500 horsepower in the gap, that power is constant, as the transfer of flux surrounds the coil and pushes and pulls on it with one authority. If the other unit was 500 horsepower too it would only be constant in the locations where the columns are located, the space between the two would be zero force, and the end result is less SPL.

The Warden has been lurking in the shadows for years, the rumors and myths that surround this driver have been circulating the internet for what seems like ages, but it’s finally here and we consider this to be our proudest accomplishment to date. "

Interesting. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif I like the way the Warden sub looks when it comes to the utilization of the magnets. It looks to be 6 or 5 cylindrical magnets, very nice. I don't know if it's too intruding to ask if you had them magnetized or were they assembled while they were pre-magnetized. xD

Your sub will sandwhich peoples heads between it, and the engine block. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Well, each unit is build with an overhead crane! So you tell me!

LOL!!! really
Is a magnetizer capable of magnetizing the motor be too costly?

Yep! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
