Subs using the XBL^2 motor

[ninjawhiteboy12 10+ year member]

I am interested to hear all of the different subs that use the XBL^2 motor. I know of a few such as AudioPulse/Tc Sounds, AE, and Creative Sound but I want to know if there are any others out there. Thanks Guys =]

The TC/AudioPulse are not XBL.

Old ~04 RE XXX, Adire Brahma, one of the Mags(?), some Exodus Audio, ascendant audio avalanche.

really the Audiopulse/Tc sounds Axis subs dont use the XBL^2 motor, hmm i must have read something wrong then, thanks

AE doesnt use either

Stereo Integrity, Creative Sound Solutions and Exodus Audio are the big ones using it right now.

AE doesnt either, **** i need to learn to read, it was the Lambda motor that they use, my bad......again, thanks for clearing that up

Yup, AE uses Lambda which gives extremely low Le which gives response up to 2khz or so.

so are those ALL of the companies using the XBL^2 motor?

what companies use the Lambda motor.....just AE?

The 05 RE XXX, AA Avalanche, + MKII Brahma IMO were the 2 best xbl^2 motored woofers. Awesome all around SQ + SPL potential.

yup

how do the lambda and XBL^2 motors compare, what does each design do that contributes to lower destortion and higher output? Thanks guys

XBL is split gap, it gives a liner BL curve and helps the Le curvebe more linear. The Lambda motor is not linear, it is just a shorting ring taken to the extreme. It shorts out any eddy current that can form in the pole, it keeps a constant core for the VC, basically an inductor and keeps flux modulation from occurring.

the JL audio W8 uses the Xbl-3! motor.

on a serious note,

my mypre mids use xbl2, they can play lowww

so out of each design which would deliver the most low distortion and highest output driver?.........or would it depend on the specific driver and the parts used?
