Extra-thin two layer coating to protect and seal the proprietary magnesium compound (Organic membrane + specialized ceramic coating) Better anti-resonance capability without loss in sensitivity Protection against rust, oxidation, volatility and other environmental influence Corrugation technology...
  • Page 9 TECHNOLOGY - MG DIAPHRAGM Impulse response characteristics Conventional metal diaphragms have a very fast response rate and slow decay. This clearly creates metallic coloration and adds resonance. Esoteric’s Mg cone designs have a very fast decay thanks to their higher internal dissipation and resonance control technology (Proprietary ceramic coating and corrugation).
