Frequently Asked Questions about Onyx 16

Welche Materialien wurden beim ETON Onyx 16 verwendet?

The ETON Onyx 16 uses high-quality materials for optimal sound quality. It features a ribbed and reinforced paper diaphragm, complemented by a hand-painted fabric dust cap. This combination supports the acoustic performance of the mid-bass driver. Its aluminum die-cast basket is extremely torsionally rigid, which increases overall stability. A strong neodymium magnet provides the necessary magnetic force. All these materials together ensure precise sound reproduction and robust construction. The use of high-quality materials emphasizes the durability and sound excellence of this speaker.

Welche elektrischen Spezifikationen hat der Onyx 16?

The Onyx 16 is designed for a nominal power handling of 90 W RMS and can achieve a maximum music power handling of 140 W. Its nominal impedance is 4 ohms, which supports efficient current flow. The DC resistance is 3.4 ohms, while the voice coil inductance is 0.43 mH. The characteristic sound pressure level is measured at 88 dB, ensuring balanced volume performance. Special attention should be given to the ratio of resonance frequency (77 Hz) to the mechanical compliance (CMS) of 0.33 mm/N, which together provide precise responsive performance.

Wie detailliert sind die Thiele-Small-Parameter des Onyx 16?

The Thiele-Small parameters of the Onyx 16 provide important details about the speaker's performance. The resonance frequency (TSP fr) is 77 Hz, while the mechanical Q factor (QMS) is 5.07. The electrical Q (QES) is specified as 0.78, and the total Q factor (QTS) is 0.68. These parameters indicate a balanced relationship between efficiency and controllability. Additionally, the mechanical compliance (CMS) of 0.33 mm/N and the equivalent air volume of the suspension (VAS) of 8.6 dm3 are noteworthy. Such precise parametric specifications highlight the engineering excellence.

Wie verbindet sich der Onyx 16 mechanisch?

Mechanically, the Onyx 16 is characterized by the extremely torsion-resistant aluminum die-cast basket, which additionally features optimized ventilation. This enhances the structural integrity of the speaker. The voice coil diameter of 32 mm ensures robust sound conversion, while the mechanical Xmax of +/- 9.0 mm indicates the maximum mechanical displacements. The mechanical resistance (RMS) of 1.36 kg/s is an indication of efficiency in kinetic energy processing. This combines to create a strong, reliable mechanical connection that offers consistent sound fidelity.

Wie ist der Onyx 16 dimensioniert und welche Tips zur Installation gibt es?

The Onyx 16 has an overall diameter of 165 mm, with a cutout diameter of 146 mm and a mounting depth of 79.5 mm. These dimensions allow for flexible installation options in most vehicles. The clamp has dimensions of 4.8/6.3 mm, which provides various connection options. When installing, it is important to consider the space in the vehicle, especially the frame depth of 6 mm, to ensure a precise installation position. The additionally reinforced construction of the aluminum basket promotes a vibration-free installation.

Welche Klangeigenschaften bietet die Papiermembran?

The ribbed paper membrane of the Onyx 16 combines robustness with sound resolution. Its special ribbing and reinforcement minimize distortion at high displacements. This allows for linear sound delivery across a wide frequency spectrum. The paper composition provides a natural tonal dynamics and precise sound reproduction. Additionally, the hand-painted dust cap made of fabric ensures harmonious sound projection. The symmetry in the winding contributes to sound purity and detail fidelity, which becomes particularly noticeable in complex musical passages. These features make the Onyx 16 an excellent choice for sound enthusiasts.

Wie beeinflusst der Neodym-Magnet des Onyx 16 die Leistung?

The strong neodymium magnet in the Onyx 16 plays a crucial role in the speaker's performance. Neodymium is known for its high energy level and provides a powerful magnetic interaction with the voice coil. This achieves higher efficiency at a low weight. It improves the speaker's response time and increases the accuracy of sound reproduction. The use of this magnet means increased sensitivity and nuanced playback with low power consumption. It is an ideal solution when precise and powerful sound is required.

Wie hoch ist das Gewicht des Onyx 16 und was bedeutet das für die Installation?

The Onyx 16 weighs 0.97 kg, making it relatively light for a speaker of its class. This low weight allows for easier installation, as there are fewer stress points in the vehicle. The knowledgeable use of materials such as the torsion-resistant aluminum die-cast further reduces the overall weight without compromising structural integrity. This not only facilitates the craftsmanship of the installation but also helps the speaker to be less susceptible to mechanical vibrations. A wisely chosen positioning minimizes resonances and maximizes the sound output.

Welche Bedeutung hat die Schwingspulenbelüftung beim Onyx 16?

The voice coil ventilation of the Onyx 16 is crucial for thermal and acoustic efficiency. The strategically placed ventilation effectively dissipates excessive heat from the voice coil, which increases long-term durability and minimizes distortion. Furthermore, the ventilation helps to mitigate kinetic energy compensation forces, contributing to the overall tuning of the speaker. These factors allow for higher driveability without loss of quality and ensure consistent sound reproduction, even under demanding acoustic conditions. The combination of ventilation and high-quality neodymium magnets thus ensures maximum efficiency.

Welche Frequenzleistung hat der ETON Onyx 16?

The frequency performance of the ETON Onyx 16 is enabled by its wide acoustic bandwidth, starting from a resonance frequency of 77 Hz. This ensures deep bass reproduction, while the specific diaphragm area of 137 cm² can generate more sound pressure. This design allows the speaker to coherently and evenly reproduce both low and mid frequencies. Together with a characteristic sound pressure level of 88 dB and a balanced ratio between CMS and VAS, the Onyx 16 supports the detailed reproduction of demanding music compositions, ensuring that no tonal nuance is lost.
