Transducer manufacturer Lavoce has introduced a 6.5-inch ferrite common HF/LF magnet coaxial. The CSF061.71K incorporates a precision crafted common HF/LF motor which has been carefully optimised by the Italian R&D team and compliments the CSF082.00K, an 8-inch version launched in 2021. Both models form the beginning of a wider range of steel basket common motor coaxials with 10-, 12- and 15-inch sizes coming later in 2023.

The CSF061.71K has a 150W AES power handling and 96dB sensitivity for the LF, and a 35W AES power handling and 103.5dB sensitivity for the HF. The LF woofer uses a 1.7-inch edgewound copper-clad aluminium voice coil and the HF uses a 1.4-inch copper-clad aluminium voice coil on a one-piece polyimide diaphragm and surround. The addition of double demodulating rings helps minimise distortion. Together with a 75Hz–20kHz frequency range and 100° nominal coverage, the CSF061.71K is suitable for high-performance point-source applications or ceiling speaker projects.

The Italian company has also announced the launch of its first 1-inch exit annular diaphragm design compression drivers. The DN10.143 and DF10.143 are said to deliver a higher sensitivity and extended low-frequency performance than typical dome diaphragm designs. This also presents a lower distortion characteristic across the whole operating frequency range, which is further enhanced by the first break-up modes of the annular diaphragm exhibiting at a higher frequency. Both models specify a 1.8kHz recommended crossover point.

The DN10.143 has a neodymium magnet motor structure and offers 35W AES power rating with 110dB sensitivity and a frequency range of 1.2–20kHz. The driver uses a 1.4-inch edgewound copper-clad aluminium voice coil, one-piece high temperature polymer annular diaphragm and surround, and weighs 0.5kg with a 71mm diameter. The DF10.143 has a ferrite magnet motor structure and offers 35W AES power rating with 107.5dB sensitivity and a frequency range of 1.2–20kHz. It uses the same 1.4-inch edgewound copper-clad aluminium voice coil and one-piece high temperature polymer annular diaphragm and surround. The DF10.143 has been designed for pushing the operating HF bandwidth limits for more cost-conscious line array projects or high-output two or three-way cabinet designs.
