Celestion launches new FTR12-4080DL Low Frequency Driver

Celestion has introduced the FTR12-4080DL (four-ohm) 12-inch, cast aluminium chassis, ferrite magnet low frequency driver – specifically designed for subwoofer applications.

Well-established as an eight-ohm driver, this purpose-built subwoofer is newly available in four-ohm, making it ideal for applications that require every watt of amplifier power when delivering uncompromising bass.

The Celestion FTR12-4080DL features a four-inch (100 mm) voice coil, providing 1400W of continuous power handling and 88dB sensitivity with an output frequency range of 20-300Hz. The half-roll elastomer surround offers improved modal distribution for reduced distortion and enables greater stability at extremes of excursion (with an Xmax of 13.6mm) for a solid, deep bass response.

The Airflow vented magnet assembly allows for dynamic heat dispersion, minimising power compression and enhancing product longevity. The driver features optimised double suspension for enhanced control and linearity and the glass loaded paper cone features a weather-resistant impregnation for extreme durability.

Developed at Celestion’s headquarters in Ipswich, England, this loudspeaker was designed using specialist FEA (Finite Element Analysis) modelling techniques, enabling the Celestion engineering team rapidly to achieve genuine increases in performance, including greater efficiency, and exceptionally low distortion.

The new FTR12-4080DL cast aluminium loudspeaker emphasises Celestion’s commitment to delivering a wide range of high-quality solutions for sound reinforcement and professional audio applications.
