Description: Epique E180HE-44 7" DVC MMAG Extended Range Subwoofer 4 Ohm per CoilLike. No. Other Combining world class performance with a reasonable cost, the Epique E180HE-44 7" carbon fiber cone woofer from Dayton Audio sets a new standard in versatility, distortion, and response for small speakers. Featuring a carbon fiber cone, dual voice coils, custom tooled suspension, FEA optimized motor, cast aluminum frame, ample venting, and extensive induction control, the E180HE-44 pushes the limits of performance for a 7" driver. Capable of exceptional performance in everything from small subwoofers to 2-way designs, this versatile driver will redefine what is possible from compact speaker systems.

This unique design uses 2 top plates spaced between 6 smaller gap balancing magnets creating more dynamically stable magnetic gaps with more consistent flux than the more common dual gap arrangements. The combination of the MMAG motor and the underhung voice coil gives the E180HE-44 zero loss of motor force (Bl) even when driven to 10 mm of excursion, and an overall excursion capability of over 14 mm (at 70% Bl). This incredible excursion capability allows extremely low harmonic and intermodulation distortion to ensure remarkably clean output even when driven to high output levels. Furthermore, the motor includes a full length copper sleeve surrounding the pole which offers extensive induction control to lower Le and improve high frequency response, while simultaneously lowering distortion, reducing power compression, and increasing thermal power handling. Carbon Fiber Is All About Performance The rigid carbon fiber cone gives the E180HE-44 a unique look while offering a number of performance advantages. With one of the highest strength to weight ratios of readily available materials, carbon fiber keeps the moving mass to a minimum enabling extended low frequency extension without sacrificing efficiency. The woven cone has excellent damping properties which keeps unwanted resonances under control for incredibly smooth response all the way up to 3,000 Hz. Optimized cone and dustcap profiles make sure that there is no deformation when exposed to high stress so the smooth response and low distortion remains consistent even when pushed to high output levels. Finally, the outside edge of the cone has been reinforced to further control cone breakup and help maintain controlled off axis dispersion. High excursion requires flexible suspension When designing the E180HE-44, Dayton Audio paid extra attention to optimize the suspension to guarantee unrestricted excursion without limiting performance. The large roll rubber surround was custom tooled for high excursion while paying extra attention to the profile to avoid limiting off axis dispersion. A filleted inside edge helps to add extra damping to the cone while reducing reflection from the high roll surround to further improve higher frequency response. A large diameter progressive spider helps keep the cone linear when driven to high excursion without restriction. In addition, the tinsel leads have been woven into the spider on opposing sides to keep mass and compliance displaced evenly across the spider.Extensive venting helps displace unwanted heat Excess heat build-up will increase resistance and cause significant power compression and even failure. The forced air across the voice coil keeps everything cool the E180HE-44 has extensive cooling. Another advantage of this MMAG motor assembly is the open spaces between the bucking magnets, allowing unrestricted airflow directly into the center of the magnetic gap. This open layout pulls cool air directly across the voice coil to remove heat more efficiently than common motor designs. Also, the E180HE-44 includes a vented voice coil former, 3 large peripheral gap vents, and unrestricted airflow under the spider to make sure that every component has fresh air moving across it to keep temperatures at a minimum even when pushed hard for long periods.Cast aluminum frame holds everything together In order to support its massive motor assembly while providing a solid mounting surface, the E180HE-44 uses a rugged cast aluminum frame. The minimalistic design of the frame eliminates unwanted reflections and provides ample airflow for the rear of the cone. With plenty of space behind the spider makes sure that you can push the limits of excursion without bottoming out. Being a non-magnetic material, the aluminum frame has no effect to the magnetic field allowing the motor to effortlessly perform exactly as designed. As an added bonus aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat to further assist in cooling.No Replacement for Displacement Thanks to the 14mm linear excursion of the E180HE-44, speaker designers can get incredible volume displacement out of a significantly smaller driver in significantly smaller boxes. This comes with a caveat, however; more displacement requires larger ports, which can become cumbersome to fit inside such small boxes. To enable the highest quality builds, Dayton Audio has created high-performance passive radiators that retain the Epique family aesthetic. Eliminate the need for excessively large ports by using the Epique E150HE-PR and the E180HE-PR in your next Epique build! We've Got Your Back We stand behind our products and our warranty is a demonstration of our commitment to quality and reliability.Learn MoreShop the Whole Epique Series Capable of exceptional performance in everything from small subwoofers to 2-way designs, this series will redefine what is possible from compact speaker systems.

You can build very complex contraptions to help them extend into the bass region, but I wanted it all - deep bass, impact, power handling, open baffle spaciousness and full range goodness. I crossed these over at 500 Hz with the tang band 4" full range on an open baffle and I am very satisfied. These are still breaking in now, but are sounding great! The face plate for this is glued to the front of a Denova 0.23 CF sealed cabinet stuffed with ~1/3 pounds of polyfil. DSP is handled with the MiniDSP 2x4HD. They aren't capable of high output at 20hz, but the math puts them at around 95dB theoretical max at 40 hz at 1 meter, which is more than enough to pound in-room in a nearfield listening arrangement. Applying a roll-off to your curve under 40Hz keeps the bass sounding full and tight, but lets you crank the volume up further"- misterBill Not Only Do Our Customers Love Us Quickly becoming a customer favorite, the epique series has had critical acclaim from many.
