15 INCH 800W BASS LOUDSPEAKER (AC386V-B3s-8)

The AC386V is an Australian made light-weight economical high performance pressed steel frame 15″ ferrite driver designed specifically for bass cabinets.  This model delivers high spl and exceptional performance in an economical design.

The AC386V features CNC precision magnet components. The FE optimized ferrite magnet-assembly design delivers large linear voice coil excursion Xpk of 7.0mm.  Aluminum shorting ring minimizes distortion, improves inductance linearity, improves stability and enhances thermal dissipation. The steel magnet parts are finished in E-coat which offers improved corrosion resistance and offers better heat transfer.

 The stiff damped curvilinear cone is product of our OFP technology and is molded in-house from a blend of premium air-dried wood pulp and Kevlar fibres resulting in smooth controlled mid response.  The spider is made of Aramid material chosen for its high rigidity and long-term stability in demanding applications. The spider and accordion cloth cone surround have been designed to match the BL linearity at extreme levels.

Reliable performance, high thermal rating is achieved with a 75mm voice coil employing high temperature adhesives and flow through magnet cooling. These features provide minimum thermal compression in demanding applications.

This model features a 180mm ferrite magnet and the driver parameters produce low frequency response with punch. This driver features driver parameters that produce a full rich punchy bass in vented enclosures.

The AC386V is an economical driver designed specifically for bass systems.
