Hey guys,
This is a project I've been working on for a while... it's origins date back to 2009 with my unfinished 4" coil Neo design (some may remember it) :
Proto NEO 4" motor - Car Audio Classifieds
I put the whole thing on hold to concentrate more on things that would really grow the company & our dealer base. That being said... fast forward 5 years now and I have the opportunity and ability to work on this again.
As far back as 2009 I knew I wanted to go after my Neo SPL design with a 4" coil -- so I did that again. This time I went for a good bit more Neo and a different / unique design :
So this is my first prototype / first fully completed Neo prototype. This may not be the 100% final version but I think it's close. I should have it in my hands early on in January for testing.
Few quick details that I am releasing now...
1) 4" voice coil
2) 16 slugs of N42H Neo (N48H was a large cost increase with almost no increase in flux)
3) Will be sold in 12s, 15s, and 18s
4) Pricing is TBA as I go over all the final costs of the motor... certainly not cheap; the motor itself costs about as much as 7 pcs Z v.4 motors based on my early estimates.
5) It is mated to a 10" frame in the photo for size reference; but I don't currently have plans to make them as 10s
6) Motor weight is ~70 lbs... overall external size is almost identical to a Z v.3 motor.
That is about it for now... except for a quick photo of my Neo chunks :
These look a little rough as they were cut into shape; when we end up doing production we'll tool the exact size/shape we end up with so they'll look perfect.
