THE ARAMID FIBRE SANDWICH MEMBRANE
The aramid fibre sandwich membrane, recognizable by its yellow color, is the symbol of the Car Audio K2 Power line.
AN HISTORIC MEMBRANE
Also used on JMLab high-fidelity loudspeakers, the K2 sandwich membrane was first launched in 1986 with the use of Polykevlar. The Poly-K membrane consists of two sheets of aramid fibre on either side of a hollow microbead structure to improve the weight/stiffness/damping compromise. The yellow aramid fibre membrane has acquired iconic status ever since. It has recently been extensively renewed, while retaining the characteristics that made it such a success.
A MEMBRANE AT THE HEART OF PERFORMANCE
In 2016, the aramid fibre sandwich membrane evolved but retained its identity, always combining these 3 key factors: rigidity / lightness / damping. Its aim is to offer high-quality acoustic reproduction, whatever the type of music listened to.
It now features an ultra-light foam core sandwiched between a layer of aramid fibre and a layer of glass fibre. This ensures high purity and precision, all without coloration.
