Purifi Application Notes and Downloads
Matching passive radiator: Purifi Audio PTT6.5PR 6.5" Passive Radiator
This 6.5" is a member of the ultra low distortion extended-stroke woofer family from PURIFI. The driver incorporates the easily recognizable PURIFI NeutralSurround suspension and ultra-linear motor system PURIFI PureDrive technology working in concert to elevate performance to a whole new level despite its compact size.
The PTT6.5X04-NFA-06 features:
- Vibroacoustic optimized cone and dust cap in proprietary paper fiber mix
- Negligible Force Factor Modulation (FFM) and Surround Radiation Distortion (SRD)
- Ultra Low Magnetic Hysteresis Distortion (MHD)
- "Real" long-stroke performance with distortion remaining low over full excursion
- Uncompromised midrange performance
- Designed and manufactured in Denmark
PTT6.5X04-NFA-06 is the next iteration of PTT6.5X04-NFA-01, featuring a reinforced chassis design with a cutout of 148mm.
- Low Force Factor Modulation: Prevents voice coil current from modulating Force Factor (Bl). The PURIFI motor completely avoids this classical Achilles’ heel of long stroke drivers. This translates into low intermodulation (IMD): clean, undistorted midrange even in the presence of a heavy bass. Equates to low impedance modulation, meaning that drive current is not distorted by cone motion.
- Very Constant Force Factor over Excursion: Prevents voice coil position from modulating the force factor. This is the classical cause of “burbling” i.e. amplitude modulation of the midrange by large low-frequency cone excursions.
- Low Surround Radiation Distortion: The surround contributes to sound output. Conventional surrounds produce distortion as they deform. PURIFI’s Neutral Surround geometry avoids this mechanism without constraining motion. This reduces harmonic distortion as well as intermodulation distortion.
- Low Magnetic Hysteresis Distortion: Hysteresis means that magnetic domains in iron retain traces of previous magnetization / demagnetization cycles which cause distortion when magnetized or demagnetized again. This distortion masquerades as benign harmonic distortion when tested with a sine wave but takes on a crackling or noisy character with more complex signals. Removing hysteresis distortion translates into a very “fluid” presentation with excellent front/back separation in the stereo image and a perfectly black background between instruments.
- Cleaner than large-cone short-stroke drivers: The combination of the above characteristics results in a compact long-stroke driver that delivers complex sound with a clarity and lack of effort that was previously the exclusive province of large-cone short-stroke drivers. Additionally, thanks to the small cone size, the driver has excellent midrange reproduction. It is highly suited for two-way systems.
