Dear Valued Customer,
All of us at Diamond Audio would like to thank you for your purchase of a HEX Pro speaker system. HEX
Pro component systems and subwoofers are the very best speakers available for use in the automobile
environment. By choosing these products you recognize the value in using only the best. With our
proprietary HEX™ cones and neo motors that utilize our patented TDX™ technology, we know you will
be satised with these systems for years to come.
Please keep in mind that prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels in excess of 100 dB can cause
permanent hearing loss. This high performance speaker system can exceed that level, so please exercise restraint in its operation in order to preserve your ability to enjoy its delity in the future.
Because of their exible installation possibilities, please consider having your new speakers professionally installed by an authorized Diamond Audio dealer. This will assure a clean and efcient installation, and extend your one year warranty to three years.
At Diamond Audio Technologies, we strive to bring honest value and excellent quality to all of the
products we build. By your purchase of this product, you have joined the growing family of discerning
listeners who demand only the best. Welcome!
The Diamond Audio Team
SPECIAL THANKS

Thermal-Dyne eXtreme™ is a fundamentally different solution. The concept is simple, eliminate the
detrimental effects of heat in a loudspeaker system. The solution however, is quite complex. Our
engineers decided to start with a fresh sheet of paper and build a new line of products that addressed
the thermal problems and shortcomings of conventional designs while signicantly raising the existing
level of performance.
To understand TDX
™
speaker technology, it must rst be compared to that of a conventional speaker
design. At the heart of every speaker is a permanent magnet motor structure that provides the
magnetic energy, or force to move the voice coil back and forth within the magnetic air gap. Conventional speakers use a large ceramic magnet surrounding the voice coil that actually retains heat rather
than dissipating it. TDX
™
motors use a small but very efcient high temperature Neodymium magnet
mounted inside the voice coil. The geometry, venting and material selection for the motors have all
been optimized for ideal thermal dissipation. The TDX™ thermal efciency is nearly (5) times greater
than conventional designs. In conjunction with the motor design, TDX™ Technology utilizes die-cast
aluminum frame structures to act as a heat sink for the encapsulated motor structure. To insure
maximum heat transfer from the encapsulated motor case to the aluminum frame, a special thermal
paste lls any surface voids that may be present in this mating surface.
The evolution of TDX
™
Technology can be seen in the new HEX™ Pro series of products. The new HEX™
Pro component systems take this TDX
™
Technology and expand on it to maximize the benet for
superior full spectrum audio performance. To faithfully reproduce an extended frequency range, the
materials and design must be optimal. This coupled with a demand for very high power handling, is
extremely challenging. These systems utilize an improved version of our legendary HEX
™
cone, our
patented dual-tuned chamber tweeter along with our extruded aluminum, high power, programmable
crossover to make the very best speaker system available in mobile audio. Period.
