[QUOTE="req, post: 803428, member: 555713"] not really. its really quite a minimal addition - compared to a UH motor. unless you are doing somthing like the brahma or the XXX - the top plates on those are huge to say the least. but as far as 'adding' material. its a minimal addition, yes - its another bit there, but the performance gain versus material cost is well worth the trade off. technically - all they ahve to do, instead of cutting off the bottom half of the top plate that sticks out into the gap, they cut out the middle. thats about it [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] with whatever additions they have to the coil length and what not. my koda8 has a normal sized magnet\back plate, but the top plate is like 1\4" thicker than other 8's ive seen. and they are supposed to play clean very high - in fact, the great 8 challenge, they got the koda to 200w with zero distortion, and kept turning it up - and it died with NO warning because it has such linerarity. thermal RMS is 150 on them (i believe) and adire dosnt lie [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] they were all surprised when it went because there was no warning via distortion or anything. sweet little drivers.
