Small Woofer No Bass! Think Again.
FredericStevenson innovative design created the small box, high power
subwoofer category for automobile and modern home where space is
limited.
Physics tells us that in order to have high-impact, low
frequency bass, a large cabinet was required.
However, With the Extreme Excursion e² Subwoofer, music and
film enthusiasts could have real bass in a car or bedroom that could
never support a large, bulky, old-school subwoofer.
Introducing Extreme Excursion e²
Technology
Needless to say, the e² Subwoofer Clarity
series is our flagship model.
Incorporating twin drivers concept, it produces huge bass from a box
a
fraction of the size of
its competitors. When you
first see it, you won't believe it's capable of delivering
significant bass. And when
you first hear it, you'll search the room to see if someone has
sneaked in two of them. Both
drivers in the FredericStevenson e²
Subwoofer are driven by a common electric motor and magnetic
structure. One driver is
driven by a voice coil, the other by a defined mass.
Both drivers move inward and
outward together.
The two forces are exactly equal and opposite.
The twin drivers contribute equally to the output sound
pressure in its chosen operating band.

Progressively, I'll explain the issues of Bass Reflex, Closed Box & Bandpass
loudspeaker design concepts...what are the common design limitations
inherited, etc.
FredericStevenson e² Subwoofer
Probably
the 1st passive
radiator subwoofer system in the car music scene. FredericStevenson brings
you loads of fine technology found only in high end audiophile systems.
e² technology equates to Extreme
Excursion of the cone diaphragm secured in place by high quality wide
moulded latex surround material. Powered by high magnetic density magnets.
Simply, the cone is able to transverse more axial distance than conventional
drivers. Extremely efficient in moving more air!
Innovative Technology – from a tiny cabinet they
are able to put out as much bass as an extremely large woofer in a
very large cabinet. The
secret
behind is the custom large excursion drivers.
Its in and out movement is approximately five times greater
than a conventional woofer.
Since it can move back and forth 2inches, it can move lots of air.
Extreme
Excursion Vs Classical 15” Drivers
In order to get lots of air displacement we need a very large
stroke (long throw) woofer, that is why all FredericStevenson’s
subwoofer designs
come with "Extreme Excursion“ trademark.
π(4)²
(area of piston) x 2.5" (Extreme excursion of woofer) x 2 (two
drivers in a box) = 201 cubic inches.
201 cubic inches of
air displacement is about the same as three or four (depending on
their excursion) "Classic" 15" drivers operating in a cabinet the
size of a small refrigerator.
In practice, it's somewhat less because the excursion damper is set
to prevent bottoming.
E² Subwoofer Technology
FredericStevenson e² Technology
complements the passive radiator configuration to give you
numerous advantages.
Highly recommended to be used with the
Clarity 2 way system for best experience.
ACCURATE BASS RESPONSE
+ e² subwoofer
drivers minimize unwanted oscillations.
+ Tight controlled bass extension
+ Response is congruent to closed box designs
but wins over
with superior SPL performance
HIGHEST SPL WITH LOW DISTORTION
+ Highest SPL against other
configurations with same input
power.
+
Largest volumetric air movement for best
staging
experience
+ Low distortion in acoustic
transduction when driven hard
+ Requires the least box design volume
+ Occupies minimal space in car
