UMII10-22 Spec Sheet

Built for Extension, Output, and Versatility

Like you have come to expect from the original Ultimax drivers, the UMII10-22 delivers nothing short of exceptional performance. This powerhouse of a driver is built to impress with its deep, clean, fast, and powerful low frequency output. Equipped with a carbon fiber cone, rigid cast aluminum frame, dual spiders, 2-1/2" flat wound voice coil, dual shorting rings, extensive venting, and an FEA optimized motor, the UMII10-22 is specially engineered for high SPL, ultra-low bass extension, and minimal distortion. This means you can expect an incredible amount of clean and accurate low frequency output from this compact driver.

Thanks to its superior design incorporating a 2-1/2" diameter flat wound voice coil and extensive venting, this driver can handle up to a staggering 600 watts of power continuously, without significant power compression or thermal fatigue. With dual 2-ohm voice coils, you have the freedom to operate in stereo 2-ohm mode or configure it in either 1-ohm or 4-ohm mono mode, giving you maximum flexibility in your setup.

Let's talk about enclosure flexibility - a standout feature of the UMII10-22. This subwoofer is engineered to perform excellently in sealed enclosures as small as 0.75 cubic feet, providing output that can reach into the bottom octave. But that's not all. If you want to go bigger and bolder with a vented design, rest assured that the UMII10-22 will deliver impressive sound pressure levels al the down to the limits of human hearing.

In summary, whether you're looking for a compact setup or a substantial vented system, the UMII10-22 is designed to deliver. With its unbeatable features, exceptional power handling, and unparalleled performance, this subwoofer is a stepping stone on the path to audio excellence. Choose the UMII10-22 from Ultimax and elevate your audio experience to new heights.

Carbon Fiber Cone and High Roll Rubber Surround

With a remarkably high strength to weight ratio, Dayton Audio chose a single layer woven carbon fiber cone for the Ultimax II. This rigid diaphragm resists deformation from the stress of high displacement to ensure pistonic movement and extreme durability. Thanks to the low mass, this driver can reproduce every detail with accuracy and control. More than just a cosmetic touch, the cone is indexed for a smooth transition between the cone and surround adding extra rigidity on the edge to minimize unwanted resonances. Supporting the diaphragm is a high roll butyl rubber surround that has been optimized to allow extreme excursion without sacrificing cone area.

2-1/2" Flat Wound Voice Coil

In order to reliably handle up to 600 watts RMS, the UMII10-22 is driven by a 2-1/2" diameter, 4-layer, flat wound voice coil on a vented aluminum former. The flat ribbon wire has significantly more surface and contact area than round wire resulting in improved heat transfer and dissipation. The 4 layers put more windings in the magnetic gap while keeping the gap as tight as possible, improving motor strength and overall control. Additionally, the thick aluminum former plays a crucial role by efficiently drawing heat away from the voice coil, the first step to keeping the motor cool.

Optimized Motor with Extensive Venting

In order to ensure optimal performance and minimize distortion, the voice coil is driven by a FEA optimized magnet assembly. This assembly creates a powerful and symmetric magnetic field in the center of the voice coil allowing for identical forward and backward movement of the cone, even at maximum displacement. The top and back plates have been precisely machined with sculpted edges to effectively contain and transfer the magnetic force. To prevent overheating, the motor assembly and frame feature extensive venting, allowing heat to escape from the voice coil and former. This venting is achieved through various paths, including the voice coil former, sub-cone, under the spider, through the pole piece, and voice coil gap, ensuring efficient cooling and preventing power compression, even during long listening sessions.

Low Distortion Shorting Cap and Sleeve

To keep distortion at a minimum, the UMII10-22 incorporates an aluminum shorting sleeve and a thick aluminum pole piece cap. These elements play a crucial role in maintaining stability and consistency in the motor's magnetic field as the voice coil moves within the magnetic gap. In addition, they ensure that the inductance remains linear throughout the entire stroke of the voice coil. This consistent motor force is instrumental in minimizing non-linearities and intermodulation distortion. Moreover, the shorting rings contribute to a reduction in the overall inductance of the voice coil, thereby enhancing the output capability in the mid-bass and upper bass frequencies.

Dual Spiders with Stitched Tinsel Leads

Achieving truly linear movement in high excursion drivers is of utmost importance. Even the tiniest rocking motion can be greatly magnified as the cone travels further away from its resting position. In order to avoid this issue, the UMII10-22 driver incorporates a dual spider system. The spiders are intentionally spaced as far apart as possible to ensure that the cone and voice coil move reliably in a pistonic manner. Furthermore, in order to prevent fatigue and breakage the tinsel leads have been meticulously stitched onto the top spider. This not only enhances the overall durability but also eliminates any possibility of contact between the leads and the cone or spider.

Enclosure Recommendations

  • Sealed (car audio - sound quality/music): 0.8 cubic ft. (net internal, not including driver volume) produces an f3 of 52 Hz with a 0.707 Qtc alignment
  • Vented (car audio - high output/home theater): 1.5 cubic ft. (net internal, not including driver or port volume) tuned to 27 Hz produces an f3 of 27 Hz
