In a compact format running at 100W RMS, a stiff Kevlar cone maintains shape at the excursion levels this driver is rated for, reducing distortion where a less controlled cone material would begin to break up. Moisture resistance and dimensional stability across temperature complete the case for Kevlar in a motorcycle application. \u003cem\u003eOn the road: clean, detailed output at volume rather than the hardening and loss of clarity that comes from a cone working beyond its limits.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eN45H neodymium motor\u003c\/strong\u003e is sized for the chassis — delivering the magnetic flux density needed to control a \u003cstrong\u003e1.2-inch copper voice coil\u003c\/strong\u003e at 100W RMS, with the H-grade temperature rating for sustained thermal stability.

Compact speaker positions — fairing panels, dash locations, instrument surrounds — rarely place the rider in a direct listening axis.
