FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
75W, COMPACT AND LIGHTWEIGHT NEODYMIUM COMPRESSION DRIVERS AVAILABLE
FROM CELESTION
NSCA EXPO, ORLANDO, FL — The versatility of Celestion’s
CDX range has been greatly increased, with the availability of two new
compact, lightweight Neodymium compression drivers — the CDX1-1730
and CDX1-1731.
These two models provide designers with a choice of mounting
options (the CDX1-1730 is flange mount and the CDX1-1731 screw mount),
while specifications for both devices are the same: 75-Watt power rating,
8 Ohm impedance, 110 dB sensitivity, 1.2 – 20 kHz frequency range,
1.75" voice coil and 1" throat exit with a PETP film diaphragm.
According to senior project engineer Paul Cork, “These
compression drivers bring together the best elements of technology used
in all of our CDX range. The design extracts the maximum performance
from a very low profile unit.”
And, like other CDX compression drivers in the range,
these new devices make extensive use of Celestion’s industry-leading
experience in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to optimize the magnetic
and acoustic design, helping the CDX1-1730/1731 to achieve outstanding
performance at a highly competitive price point.
The new compression drivers also use Celestion’s proprietary Sound
Castle™ diaphragm clamping system to ensure even clamping pressure
on the diaphragm surround, thereby reducing distortion while allowing
the full internal volume of the rear cover to act as a loading chamber
for the diaphragm, resulting in superior lower mid-band response. With
exceptional heat management from the aluminum heatsink, an edge-wound
coil, and choice of mounting options, the CDX1-1730/1731 represents
a cost-effective, high performance HF solution for a wide variety of
sound reinforcement applications.
