Wavecor Speaker Driver - TW030WA11 - 4 Ohm Textile Tweeter with Waveguide
Description
The TW030WA11 tweeter is designed for the most demanding applications, where low resonance frequency, high sensitivity and power handling, controlled dispersion, and a very wide frequency range are required.
Features
- Featuring waveguide face plate for controlled dispersion, offering optimized off-axis and power response
- 30 mm voice coil design with high power handling, and low resonance frequency
- Copper clad center pole yielding very low voice coil inductance for reduced distortion and increased high frequency output
- Internal volumes for low resonance frequency and distortion
- Precision-coated textile diaphragm for improved consistency and high-frequency extension
- Optimised dome shape for ultra high frequency cutoff
- Vented voice coil former for reduced distortion and compression
- Copper-clad aluminium voice coil wire offering lower moving mass for improved efficiency and transient response
- Build-in cavities under dome/edge to equalize pressure for lower distortion and lower resonance frequency
- Flexible lead wires for higher power handling and larger excursion
- Gold plated terminals to prevent oxidation and ensure long-term reliable connection
- Delivered with foam gasket attached for hassle-free mounting and secure cabinet sealing

Note 2 Tested in free air (no cabinet).
Note 3 Measured using a semi-constant current source, nominal level 2 mA.
Note 4 Measured at 25 deg. C
Note 5 It is generally a rough simplification to assume that loudspeaker transducer voice coils exhibit the characteristics of an inductor. Instead it is a far more accurate approach to use the more advanced model often referred to as the “Wright empirical model”, also used in LEAP-4 as the TSL model (www.linearx.com), involving parameters Krm, Erm, Kxm, and Exm. This more accurate transducer model is described in a technical paper (PDF) here.
