About Celestion 18" Ferrite Magnet LF Driver with Cast Aluminum Chassis, Single

For audio enthusiasts and professionals seeking robust and precise low-frequency sound reproduction, the Celestion 18" Ferrite Magnet LF Driver is an impeccable choice. Engineered with a cast aluminum chassis, this high-performance driver boasts a substantial 1600W RMS power handling capacity, as per the AES Standard, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of demanding audio applications.

With a nominal impedance of 8 ohms and an impressive 97dB sensitivity, this driver is designed to deliver clear and powerful bass with minimal power input. The broad frequency range of 25-1500Hz allows for versatile integration into a variety of speaker systems, catering to a wide spectrum of audio requirements.

At the heart of this driver lies a 5" high-temperature, dual-layer, Inside/Outside voice coil. This advanced design enhances efficiency and combats sensitivity loss due to thermal compression, maintaining consistent performance even during extended periods of high output.

The FEA-optimized magnet assembly is a testament to precision engineering, promoting highly symmetrical cone movement. This meticulous design results in exceptionally low harmonic distortion, ensuring that the audio output is pure and uncolored.

Additional features include a vented front plate that augments airflow, thereby enhancing cooling and sustaining performance levels. The twin demodulation rings play a crucial role in reducing flux modulation, which in turn minimizes electromagnetic distortion, preserving the integrity of the audio signal.

To further ensure audio fidelity, the driver incorporates a double suspension and a "multi-roll" surround. These components work in tandem to provide exceptional linearity at the extremes of cone excursion, preventing unwanted distortions and maintaining sound quality even at high volumes.

The Celestion 18" Ferrite Magnet LF Driver with Cast Aluminum Chassis is a testament to superior design and craftsmanship, making it an ideal component for high-end audio systems, professional sound reinforcement, and premium home theater setups.
