TDXTM Technology Advantage: Thermal-Dyne eXtremens is a fundamentally different solution. The concept is simple, eliminate the detrimental effects of heat in a loudspeaker system. The solution however, is quite complex. Our engineers decided to start with a fresh sheet of paper and build a new line of products that addressed the thermal problems and shortcomings of conventional designs while significantly raising the existing level of performance.
To understand TDXTM speaker technology, it must first be compared to that of a conventional speaker design. At the heart of every speaker is a permanent magnet motor structure that provides the magnetic energy, or force to move the voice coil back and forth within the magnetic air gap. Conventional speakers use a large ceramic magnet surrounding the voice coil that actually retains heat rather than dissipating it. TDXTM motors use a small but very efficient high temperature Neodymium magnet mounted inside the voice coil. The geometry, venting and material selection for the motors have all been optimized for ideal thermal dissipation. The TDXTM thermal efficiency is nearly (5) times greater than conventional designs. In conjunction with the motor design, TDXTM Technology utilizes die-cast aluminum frame structures to act as a heat sink for the encapsulated motor structure. To insure maximum heat transfer from the encapsulated motor case to the aluminum frame, a special thermal paste fills any surface voids that may be present in this mating surface.
RECOMMENDED ENCLOSURES
The enclosures specified below are offered as suggestions only. Assistance from an authorized Diamond Audio retailer is recommended for designing the correct system for your vehicle. All volumes below are shown as gross internal volumes, driver and vent displacement has been accounted for. The use of a 30 Hz. sub sonic filter is recommended on most vented enclosures.
