This speaker unit, the "FE103En", is an 10cm Full Range Unit Released in 2009 under the FOSTEX brand as a regular model, priced at ¥6,000+tax/1pc. Its main specifications include an Impedance of 8ohm, a Sound Pressure Level (sensitivity) of 89dB/W (1m), and a rated power handling of 5W, with a maximum power capacity of up to 15W.
To provide reference values for enclosure design, the Lowest Resonance Frequency (fs, f0) is 83Hz, and the Reproduction Frequency Response range is ensured from fs to 22kHz. Designed as a component for back-loaded horn enclosures, an Mms (m0) of 2.55g, and a Vas of 5.95L. The manufacturer-recommended enclosure type is a Back-loaded Horn.
The frame is made of Steel frame, the required baffle hole diameter is Φ93mm, it requires 4 mounting holes, the magnet weight is 193g, the total net weight is 580g, the overall diameter of the unit is 107mm, and the depth is 45.5mm.
The FOSTEX FE-En series is a traditional full-range regular unit by FOSTEX. It delivers bright and clear sound with a wide lineup ranging from 8cm to 20cm. The ES cone, made from perennial plants related to banana trees, features fine, flexible fibers that are well-entwined, with a broad cross-sectional shape and high aspect ratio. This results in a diaphragm with minimal loss and significantly enhanced information density. Equipped with a powerful ferrite magnet circuit, it is a versatile full-range unit suitable for both bass reflex and back-loaded horn enclosures.
