• You state that the Kilomax 18 is not to be used in horn loaded enclosures. Is this because the cone is not rigid enough to withstand the extra pressure?
  

  We do not recommend the Kilomax18 for most "traditional horn" or scoop boxes because it has a very high moving mass (Mms), a long coil, and a high Qt. Most "traditional horns" such as "W" boxes require a driver with a super low Qt and a light Mms; the Omega Pro 18 is the best choice for older style horns, W-bins, and scoops. The Kilomax is more suited for reflex boxes or "modern horns" by which we mean ones that are designed per Leach's horn design equations. The cone is strong enough for traditional style horns, Leach style horns, Reflex designs, sealed designs, and bandpass enclosures. It is the motor of the Kilomax that is not well suited for traditional horns or scoops.
