Back to Overview

The AS250-8-555 is an 11 inch bass driver with aluminum honeycomb sandwich dome, being the updated version of our successful AS250-8-552. We achieved a unique solution for BL(x) linearity in overhung motors, utilizing our own software development for voice coil windings. By finding a new approach to winding principles, we reduced compression effects and dynamical misbehavior by a factor of 10, resulting in higher dynamics and resolution. An ideal acoustical center has been achieved again, which is identical with our CELL tweeters and midranges. Our exceptionally hard aluminum sandwich dome is used for the updated CELL bass drivers that allow for negligible delay and energy storage. The hidden surround serves for reduced outer diameter and linear excursion of +/- 16mm. A new developed spider shape makes huge excursion without compression possible.

We recommend our AS250-8-555 for an application from 20 Hz - 600 Hz.
