Dual voice coil driver
« on: 10 Feb 2014, 11:16 pm »
Hi Louis,

Is it possible to order a driver with a dual voice coil (e.g. 2x8 ohm)? How hard would be to make such driver?
I understand that it might be special-order/custom/higher-price kind of deal.

Thanks,
Vlad

Hi Vlad,

I may be able to do it, but such a driver would may require me build large quantities of this type of driver to be feasible.

Thanks,
Louis

How do you wind this driver? I assume both coils are wound together in parallel, so if they are connected in
series (or parallel), they would perform as a regular single-coil driver, right? Also, if you build such driver, wouldn't
you need to test it first to see at least that it is good electrical parameters-wise before commiting to a big batch?

What kind of driver would you use for this out of your product range?

Thanks,
Vlad
