What Is a Speaker Driver? Parts, Types & How They Work
A plain-English guide to the speaker driver: how the voice coil and magnet move the cone, plus the suspension, basket, dust cap, phase plug and waveguides.
TeXtreme, Carbon Fibre and Kevlar in Loudspeakers
How TeXtreme spread tow, Kevlar and carbon fibre differ, and how carbon fibre and TeXtreme are used in loudspeakers, including SB Acoustics' Satori drivers.
What is TeXtreme®?
TeXtreme is Oxeon's spread tow composite: fibres spread into thin, flat tows. Why high specific stiffness and low weight suit loudspeaker cone design.
Which kind of speaker is suitable for me?
Soundbars, stereo systems, bookshelf and floorstanding speakers compared: size, placement and floor space, so you can pick the right type for your room.
Why do speakers have magnets?
How magnets make speakers work — permanent magnets vs electromagnets, and why neodymium: high magnetic strength, high energy density and high coercive force.
