Our Product Research Team
At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere.
That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box,
verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs.
We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.

Features
K2 Composite Sandwich Membrane/Cone: The FOCAL K2 Power 46 KX
4 features a composite sandwich membrane/cone comprised of a foam layer, sandwiched
between two Kevlar layers. The result is a material structure that is rigid, yet
light weight, and allows fast bass response without distortion.
Voice Coils: The four 1-ohm voice coils are 8 layer, 3"
diameter, copper windings on an aluminum former, resulting in high power handling,
low distortion, and impedance flexibility. When the voice coils are wired in parallel,
the woofer presents a 1/4-ohm load. When the voice coils are wired in series, the
woofer presents a 4-ohm load.
High-Performance Spider: The 46 KX 4 features a high-performance
spider with the tinsel leads sandwiched between the two layers to eliminate wire
fatigue.
Spring-Posts: The woofer features four sets of nickel-plated
spring-post speaker terminals that will accept pin connectors, dual and single
banana plugs, and bare wire up to 8-gauge.
