New Stroker Pro Series Has Redefined the Performance
Subwoofer Category
Las Vegas - The all-new Stroker Pro Series, a revolutionary dual-spider design subwoofer lineup was officially launched at the CES Show. The Stroker Pro is the most advanced subwoofer in mobile audio. Offering new design technologies and materials, the series includes both 12-inch and 15-inch models.
揟he new Stroker Pro is the most innovative product in the mobile subwoofer market? says Domenic Buonincontri, Cerwin-Vega Director of Engineering. 揑t exemplifies the tradition of the original Stroker design by maintaining a front spider and optimizing its function to match the lower spider, which stabilizes the speaker in extreme excursion conditions. We also wanted a speaker that could provide raw horsepower and could deliver tremendous sound pressure levels. Case in point ?the Stroker Pro can handle an amazing 4500 watts of power capacity and provides three inches of push ?pull excursion when loaded into a 揌igh-Q?enclosure. No other mobile subwoofer can boast such performance. The Stroker Pro employs several patent pending design technologies that will serve as a platform in future subwoofer projects.?br />
Because of the extreme power handling capacity, a unique aluminum basket was designed to increase efficiency, thermal power handling and reduce thermal compression. The outside of the voice coil is placed directly next to an aluminum heat sink that is integrated into the basket. The basket design employs external heat sink fins to help dissipate heat pulled away from the voice coil to the outside of the enclosure. In a sealed enclosure, this reduces the internal ambient heat by as much as 50%. Another patent pending technology is the unique motor geometry, which allows extremely high excursions with shorter voice coils than conventional designs. This results in a woofer with extremely high SPL capability, while maintaining high sensitivity.
Service issues were addressed by developing a field replacement cone assembly. The removable spider tower, upper spider cylinder and alignment access holes in the back plate, all combine to allow a very simple field replacement procedure. Further enhancing the process is the unique surround clamping system, which allows the cone assembly to be replaced without glue and provides a larger surface area for increased SPL.
