What is an air core inductor and why is it better?
Air core inductors (shown above) are used to filter frequencies in the crossover network and control the way the speaker sounds. The Air-Core style inductor is superior to lesser iron core inductors because they do not saturate at high power and change value. In order to get the same value, an air core inductor requires a lot more copper because it does not receive help from an iron core. this makes them much more expensive. We use excellent Air-Core inductors manufactured in Denmark.
