I'm surprised FANE did not answer correctly but the new 800W models manufactured since mid 2010 have an IN / OUT voice coil when the old 600W has only an OUTSIDE voice coil. That explains the increased power rating.


Is this correct anyone for sure? so what we saying pre 2010 there is NOT inside and outside windings of the voice coil?

can anyone answer this ?
thanks

Why you doubt my words ? I am the kind of person to spread BS ?  
I was official FANE distributor, buying thousand of drivers from their Chinese factory. I got the information first hand from Mark Oldroyd and I've seen the 2 coils (out and in/out)

 it's 200% sure

Maybe this explains some of the differences in specs between Fane's older and newer designs?


 
Fane are not owned by Eminence. It is owned by the Barnes family, who may well of course own other companies.

Fane are not owned by Eminence. It is owned by the Barnes family, who may well of course own other companies.
The Barnes family used to run Eminence Speaker Europe and distribute Eminence, they bought Precision Devices nearly 10 years ago, and Fane a few years later, around the time distribution of Eminence flipped back to Adam Hall.
 
The differences are partly to do with change of ownership, and change of manufacturer of some products to china (cheaper fane products made in china, premium fane products in UK) and generally they are updating and improving products to meet modern day power demands.
