I dont like that multi magnet design...
I just think back to science class with the magnets and iron shavings...
Wouldnt it kind of make some "hot points" in the coil where the seperate columns of magnetic flux cut across the coil?
I sure as hell would think so...

you sohuld build a box out of a signle layer of like 1/2" mdf and see if it'll blow the box apart.. and then video tape it too

I'm pretty a company would test that before putting hundreds of thousands of dollars into a subwoofer

I Asked & they said no...
I also asked if Adire was the build house (as I suspected) and the answer to that is no as well...
I really have no reason to change subs since the Diamond D6 I am using continues to draw nothing but praises in the SQ competitions I've been in. But I am tempted to try it since I could make my current center seat\box smaller & closer to the factory seat dimensions...

This npdang is he an engineer of some sorts or just a guy?
When I see that motor design I think of that drawing toy that makes the funky circular designs...
Where the multiple flux lines cross there is greater magnetism...

I cant begin to tell you if Nguyen Dang (NPDANG) is an engineer or not... what I can tell you is that he has done much research in avaialble speaker technology & done lots of tests to reveal pros & cons of said techs applied to the drivers he has tested. Nice work indeed.
Now days, if you have a good understanding of what all these technologies do, you can have a speaker you have designed built for you (should be no surprise, considering the recent birth of direct sub companies... ie... RE, AA, SS & others...)
This year Nguyen has been busy testing the prototypes he had designed... along side that sub he has a 6.5" mid (XBL^2 tech) & a tweeter as well...
I'm not particularly impressed with the mid, but the sub & tweeter look good & the sub has measured very well... I'm particularly waiting for the final to be sent to him & for distortion graphs to compare to the Dayton Referrence.
If you have further questions about his sub, ask him... he has answered everyones questions & explained the compromises made in his design to get his desired results...

Im pretty sure like about 99.5% of all subs out there are almost all shelf parts in different configurations...
