Bold North Audio Expands Range with New Carbon Fiber Cone Woofers

February 17 2021, 01:25
American audio solutions manufacturer MISCO announced the introduction of the BWF-6503, a 6.5" red carbon fiber woofer, and the BMW-4001, a 4" carbon fiber midwoofer to its growing line of premium and performance-based drivers. The two new designs are Klippel Verified and manufactured under the Bold North Audio brand in MISCO’s facility in St. Paul, Minnesota.
 

The BWF-6503 (Part #82130) 6.5" woofer was designed using state of the art Klippel Laser Scanning Vibrometry and QC testing equipment, with its design optimized by Klippel’s Near Field Scanner. Using a unique red and black thread carbon fiber cone and an NBR surround, this woofer works well in two-way book-shelf designs or multiple driver tower speakers. The cast aluminum basket is well vented under the spider to provide ample voice coil cooling to avoid power compression. A copper pole cap shorting ring in the motor and an aluminum phase plug work together to greatly reduce distortion and acoustic-wave energy interference. This woofer is designed to be compatible with the new Bold North Audio 29mm dome tweeter, the BDT-2901.

The also new BMW-4001 (Part #84071) is a premium 4" mid-woofer and ideal for professional line-arrays, multi-driver floor standing designs, or small book-shelf speakers. A rigid, but light weight carbon fiber cone along with an edge wound copper voice coil, combine for excellent transient response and an extended and controlled top end roll-off. The frame is heavy duty, aluminum die cast with venting below the flat spider and through the center of the magnet structure to avoid air turbulence and noise.

"While the marketplace has no shortage of 6.5" and 4" woofers, there are few that have the total value of these woofers," says MISCO CEO Dan Digre. "Since most global woofer production today is being done in Asia, more customers ask us to design and manufacture high-end home and studio monitor woofers here in the US. Globally, US driver manufacturing is held in high regard. We expect these woofers, along with all of the Bold North Audio speakers, to do well internationally."

The BWF-6503 and BMW-4001 are offered on MISCO’s website, with international distribution available for manufacturers and designers outside the USA. These woofers are part of the new and growing brand of premium component loudspeakers from Bold North Audio, which aims to meet the needs of pro audio companies, recording studios, branded high-end HiFi speaker system manufacturers, and advanced DIY hobbyists. The new brand is rooted in fundamental scientific research, careful material selection, precision manufacturing, and most of all, love of music. Products under development for the Bold North Audio catalog include ultra-premium quality woofers, midrange, and tweeters.
