This includes air-core inductors of the type more commonly found in high-end speakers, selected because they produce the lowest distortion of all inductor types. As the resistance of the coil is higher than a standard laminated steel or ferrite core inductor, the magnetic structure of the mid\/bass driver has been modified to compensate, resulting in fast, clean bass with no distortion from the inductor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFirm and fair\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DIAMOND 12.1 ’s rear-ported enclosure is precisely sized so that the internal volume works in harmony with the drive unit system to deliver the desired sonic result.
