Product Details:

• The BMS 4599HE dual diaphragm driver incorporates two identical 3.5” concentric annular ring diaphragms, connected to a common 2” throat, providing extremely high acoustical output.
• The patented design of the BMS 4599HE is a result of extensive dedicated research and development, providing dramatic improvement in efficiency, power handling, dynamic response and clarity.
• In fact the double voice coil/diaphragm assembly provides 6 dB higher maximal SPL compared to an equal single voice coil driver.
• Two large annular diaphragms cover the frequency range 200 Hz to 9000 Hz with a smooth, linear response.
• The high diaphragm excursion of maximal +/- 0.8 mm results in high output and increased power handling up to 2600 W peak.
• The unique voice coil technology employs a high purity copper wire wound inside and outside of the Kapton™ former to improve the heat dissipation, dramatically increasing the acoustic output and reliability of the driver, while minimizing the power compression.
• The voice coils may be driven in parallel, serial or separately for optimal amplifier loading, allowing a single channel of 4, 8, or 16Ω as well as double channel of 2 x 4Ω  or 2 x 8Ω.
• The use of high grade neodymium magnets provides improved performance while significantly reducing transducer weight.
