CF1850JD is an 18-inch ferrite magnet, cast aluminium chassis low frequency driver, offering 1.6kW rms (AES Standard) power handling and delivering 97dB sensitivity.
Particularly suited to subwoofer applications, the loudspeaker features a 5-inch/125mm, dual-layer copper voice coil, wet-wound on a glass-fibre former. This enables the driver to provide a high power handling capability while offering advanced temperature control to prevent sensitivity loss through thermal compression.
Designed using specialist FEA (Finite Element Analysis) techniques, the optimised magnet assembly enables highly symmetrical cone movement and a more efficient performance. The device also incorporates twin demodulation rings for reduced flux modulation.
Developed at Celestion’s headquarters in England, CF1850JD is the first of a new generation of ferrite magnet, cast aluminium frame drivers. It is also the first Celestion loudspeaker to feature the new visual design, created in partnership with industrial design house Allen Design Associates. More than a simple cosmetic makeover, this aesthetic is intrinsic to the performance of the loudspeaker itself and points the way to future Celestion professional audio products.
