Your advantages with Masori


Buy ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP midrange speaker online with warm sound character

The ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP impresses not only with its compact dimensions but also with its fine tuning. By purchasing on masori.de, you secure the best price thanks to our lowest price guarantee. Highlights such as the ribbed paper diaphragm and the robust voice coil ensure excellent performance. The magnetic flux density of 1.15 T and the frequency range of 80 to 5000 Hz make it a versatile all-rounder. A high load capacity of 40 W and an average sound pressure level of 88 dB complete the package for demanding applications. Additionally, it impresses with an inviting sound profile featuring warm mids and solid bass.

Sound character and diaphragm of the ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP midrange driver

The ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP impresses with its ribbed paper diaphragm, which offers a neutral sound character. This diaphragm ensures warm mids as well as a solid bass foundation. Technically speaking, the structure of the diaphragm improves internal damping, leading to a pleasant sound. Compared to other midrange drivers, the ribbed surface helps to reduce distortion. This central sound is ideal for demanding applications where precision and clarity are paramount. A smoother diaphragm, on the other hand, could create a brighter sound image, while a heavier diaphragm might enhance the bass character, but at the cost of efficiency.

Specifications of the voice coil with Kapton carrier material

The ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP midrange driver is equipped with a voice coil that has a diameter of 25 mm and is made of copper wire. The Kapton carrier material increases thermal resistance, allowing for long listening enjoyment even at higher volumes. Two winding layers ensure improved performance efficiency and precise sound reproduction. Compared to voice coils made of aluminum, copper offers better conductivity, which directly leads to more efficient energy transfer. A smaller or larger diameter could affect heat distribution as well as sound quality, with larger coils often providing more robust bass reproduction.

Magnetic drive system with 1.15 T for precise sound reproduction

With a magnetic flux density of 1.15 Tesla, the magnet of the ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP is particularly strong, ensuring precise sound reproduction. The ferrite magnet is a traditional material valued for its cost-effective and reliable properties. The overhung drive system allows for a high linear displacement, which in this context means that even at high levels, distortion-free reproduction is guaranteed. If the flux density were higher, it could generate an even more effective speaker motor force, while a weaker flux density might offer less capability for fine sound resolution.

Frequency range for a wide application range

The frequency range of the ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP lies between 80 and 5000 Hz, allowing for flexible application. This bandwidth primarily covers the important midrange, which is ideal for applications in vehicle interiors. The majority of vocal and instrumental details fall within this range, making the coverage of this bandwidth crucial. An extended frequency range could allow for more versatile applications, with the lower limit expanded for more bass and the upper limit expanded for more treble.

Mechanical data and installation dimensions of the midrange speaker

With a weight of 1.2 kg and an overall diameter of 122 mm, the ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP is optimally sized for integration into many vehicle models. Its overall depth of 66 mm and the installation diameter of 96 mm facilitate mounting in standard and custom enclosures. The rim has a thickness of 6 mm, while the screw holes measure 4.5/8 mm in diameter. These dimensions ensure stability while making installation easier. A lower weight or more compact dimensions could increase application possibilities, but may reduce sound quality.

Impedance and electrical properties

A nominal impedance of 8 Ω and a DC resistance of 5.8 Ω are characteristic of the ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP. These values are ideal for integration with commercial amplifiers, without excessively stressing the amplifier or speaker. Compared to speakers with lower impedance, this type offers better speaker control, which improves sound fidelity. A lower impedance could increase the power arriving at the speaker, but it could also increase heat generation and the risk of distortion.

Total quality Qts and mechanical quality Qms

With a total quality factor Qts of 0.32 and a mechanical quality factor Qms of 6.78, the ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP is designed for applications where precision is required. A reduced value of Qts could indicate stronger damping, which might lead to more precise bass reproduction in closed enclosures. Lower values of Qms could suggest greater loss-related damping, which could reduce the resonance peak in the bass range, thus ensuring more accurate sound reproduction.

Connection options and terminal dimensions

The connection options for the midrange speaker consist of terminals with dimensions of 2.8/4.8 mm. These universal terminals allow for a reliable and stable connection to almost all car audio systems. More stable or larger terminals could improve load capacity but are often designed for larger speakers. The presence of standardized connections also facilitates replacement and integration into existing systems without specific adjustments.

Effective radiation area SD and resonant properties

An effective radiation area of 55 cm² and a resonance frequency of 68 Hz are specific features of the ETON 4-612/C8/25 RP that further enhance its performance. This design strongly influences the sound radiation and directivity of the speaker. A larger radiation area would promise more efficient bass output but could require a larger enclosure. A lower resonance frequency could expand the frequency range in the bass but might reduce precision in the mid-frequency range.
