x2 on being ugly, lol

I guess these guys know what they're doing, just doesn't seem to make sense from a physical standpoint. But if they picked this design over the v1s round motor, maybe they're on to something.

Look over the v2

Lol this is old news. Your just seeing it now? There was a big thread on Caco about it

what doesnt make sense? its more surface area for more saturation.

The other parts of the sub are round...

Why make the motor square? Looks goofy

Most people have a wooden box and mount with the round parts facing the outside. Nobody is even going to see the square motor so I don't see why the shape matters.

Yeah, but I don't see why they would design the motor that way. Seems like the magnetic field would be weird, and not focused as well.

why not? i dont see anyone bitching about kickers square motors? they probably use the square motor to get higher levels of saturation..

the top-plate and t-yoke are round, there is more surface area and higher saturation can be achieved

Since when has Kicker made a square motor?

They had square subs, and there is much better stuff out there.

More surface area than just making a bigger circle? Seems dumb to me

you can ask sean on any design and specifics on his woofer.

generally the magnets are stronger and cheaper and you get more surface area for higher saturation. maybe he just did it to make you post comments?
