Tang Band's versatile W3-2141 full-range speaker uses a suspended voice coil that places the entire coil within the magnet gap for maximum control and accuracy. Designed for minimal distortion and resonance, the bamboo fiber paper cone and textured surround provide smooth reproduction without harsh peaks or dips. The aluminum phase plug enhances off-axis response while acting as a shorting ring that provides better control over the voice coil, resulting in lower distortion.

Highlights:

• Aluminum phase plug also acts as a shorting ring for lower distortion.
  
• Underhung voice coil improves control for lower distortion
  
• Impressive efficiency (87 dB 1W/1m) for such a small driver
  
• Unique surround and large centering spider keep the diaphragm linear well beyond the rated xmax value
