[QUOTE="n8skow, post: 8020809, member: 610656"] Primarily? Cost... If neodymium slugs were as inexpensive as the more common strontium ferrite - we'd be seeing it used on all speakers... --------- I'm not referring to how quickly the motor is moving (as that is dictated by frequency) - but with how much force it has 'to' change direction. Force is mass x acceleration, and there's give-and-take on both sides of the equation. Again - in comparison to a PA speaker, they use a fraction of the slug size found on most car audio woofers - instead utilizing a very light moving mass and comparatively tight magnetic gaps.
