Acoustic Components
KV2 Audio has developed a revolutionary woofer technology called Trans-Coil™. The woofer has two coils, a standard
voice coil assembly and a second coil placed directly on the neodymium magnetic circuit's pole piece. This technology
eliminates voice coil inductance resulting in a flat impedance response above the resonance point and achieves
faster transient response through increased force and control of the moving mass. It also linearises acoustic and
electrical phase response, reduces harmonic distortion and increases power transfer and transducer speed. Through
this technology, the speaker now behaves like both a woofer at lower frequencies and like a mid-range at higher
frequencies allowing a seamless transition to take place at the crossover frequency.
The EX10's patent pending neodymium compression driver is loaded on a constant directivity horn designed for
smooth, wide dispersion performance. More importantly, it has also been designed to precisely match the power
response of the woofer at the crossover frequency, a crucial design objective that ensures smooth transition and
minimizes anomalies.
The compression driver is a new, patent pending 1.75- inch titanium diaphragm design, featuring a complex geometry
phase plug that dramatically lowers distortion, eliminates ring modes and provides clearer, ripple free performance.
The EX10 horn was designed with two primary performance goals. The mechanical design allows the horn to be
rotated 90 degrees, allowing for complete flexibility in selection of vertical and horizontal system set up. The horn
design is based on constant- directivity geometry with an emphasis on generating very low air distortion artifacts,
maintaining low transducer compression ratios, high output and wide dispersion (100 x 80). The horn is an injected
molded aluminum part that functions as a heat dissipater for the compression driver's neodymium magnetic motor
structure.
Enclosure Design
The EX10 is a very compact, asymmetrical geometry enclosure design allowing it to be used in a variety of applications
and featuring a number of ergonomically designed components that make it lightweight and easy to use. An
extensive set of professional hardware features enables the EX10 to be used in a variety of environments using an
array of industry standard hardware. These facilitate both portable and fixed installations with a maximum amount of
mounting flexibility.
A specially molded aluminum top handle was designed and fitted to the top of the cabinet. It functions as the principle
pick up handle as well as providing several fixed installation and hanging solutions. It has a centrally located M10
hang point as well as four additional M6 bracket points. The handles four principal mounting bolts also provide an
Omnimount™ bracket point. There are two side-mounted M10 hang points that can be used with brackets or eyebolts.
