Dear SEAS
customer –
We are very
happy to be back at work after our Summer break.
The first
half of 2010 was a really big success for us, and now we look forward to
present many exiting new products during Spring.
We will be
present at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in October, and we can hardly wait to
tell you everything about the new speakers
that we will launch then. However, we have to ask to for patience, as Research
and Development guys are still tuning in on the final details.
Please keep
stopping by. We will have another ground breaking product launch coming through
very shortly. Meanwhile, do enjoy our latest addition to the Excel Woofers
Product sides. If scroll way down on your screen, you will find 3 tabs.
We are
proud and pleased to present application notes, with available additional
information, measurements and datafiles.

New tweeter available
SEAS 22TFF
MADE AVAILABLE IN PRESTIGE PROGRAM Perfection in 0,5 kgs!
Since SEAS started almost 60 years ago, we always focused on bringing the latest of technologies, combined with experience and knowledge, to the market place.
With the latest addition to our tweeter program, we most certainly follow up on these values.
The 22TFF
is a High Definition soft dome tweeter with a wide surround.
One-piece Sonomex dome and surround allows for very tight production tolerances and high consistency with a smooth and extended frequency response. The voice coil windings are immersed in magnetic fluid to increase the power handling capacity, and reduce compression at high power levels. The chassis is moulded from a stiff and stable glass fiber reinforced polymer material, and its front design offers optimum radiation conditions.

Design Passive Radiator
Dear SEAS friend and customer –
The L26ROY
subwoofer was designed using highly sophisticated FE modeling to secure perfect symmetry and virtually eliminate all instability. In these critical areas, the L26ROY outperforms all other subwoofers that we tested so far.
After extensive listening evaluations, however, we realized that even a perfect subwoofer cannot perform at its best without addressing the problems created by mounting a high output subwoofer driver in a small, vented enclosure. What was needed, was a perfectly matched passive radiator. An L26ROY mated to such a passive radiator would make it possible to use a compact cabinet volume of only 40 liters, while avoiding all the troubles associated with using a vented port. No more chuffing noise or unwanted resonances!
Introducing the new SL26R
Passive Radiator from SEAS:
The SL26R is a perfect acoustic and cosmetic match to our L26ROY subwoofer. It uses the same basket and cone assembly, and is supplied with the exact moving mass necessary to perfectly load the L26ROY in a 40 liter enclosure.
The SL26R is:
• A perfect acoustic and cosmetic match to the L26ROY subwoofer
• Designed to achieve a 26Hz Helmholz resonance in a 40 liter enclosure using a single passive radiator
• Tunable by adding or removing mass
• Usable in pairs to achieve even higher acoustic output.
• The best solution for eliminating port chuffing, resonances and mid frequency leakage
• In applications where extreme SPL is needed, two SL26R passive radiatiors can be used with a single L26ROY. In this case, the addition of 200 grams extra mass to each passive radiator will achieve a tuning at 26Hz in a 40 liter cabinet.
• For further technical details, please refer to the data sheet.
• The SL26R is now available for all our distributors. Please contact your factory representative or me directly on

The SL26R is designed to be utilised in a 40 litres box together with the L26ROY . We will revert with a closer description and product design philosophy, but can already promise amazing results.

Idunn Kit
We wish you all a very happy new year!
We are back from our Christmas Holidays, which here in the Moss
region has been very cold this year.
We are most pleased to present to you all our new Prestige Kit, Idunn ,
which utilises the new curv cone woofer U18RNX/P
and DXT tweeter 27TBCD/GB-DXT.
Idunn is based on a standard 20 l vented cabinet, chosen to give people
an easy start to build their own loudspeaker.
Named after the Norse
goddess of Youth, we believe this kit reflects our goal well – and the
goal is to create more interest around speaker kits and High End Sound by
making DIY available, easy and cost effective.
We will solve the mystery of the breathtaking sound experience.
