With compact dimensions of Φ14.2×2.8mm and a net weight of 6g, this speaker delivers excellent sound quality in a minimal footprint. It utilizes a high-performance NdFeB magnet (Φ9×2T) and has an impedance of 16 ± 15% Ohm at 1000Hz with a rated power of 10mW and a max power handling capacity of 20mW.
PU + Wool Paper Composite Diaphragm Design
This speaker driver features a PU and wool paper composite diaphragm that enhances both durability and audio fidelity:
- PU Diaphragm Characteristics:
- Delivers transparent, clear sound with impressive bass response.
- Made from 0.1mm Shore 90°A PU film for high durability and acoustic purity.
- Lightweight and resilient, ensuring long-term performance.
- Wool Paper Diaphragm Characteristics:
- Soft texture enhances the natural and mellow expression of vocals.
- Ideal for reproducing classical and soft music.
- Noted for its immersive quality in orchestral playback.
- Composite Benefits:
- Combines the punchy bass of PU with the softness of wool paper.
