Peerless Audio introduces the HVS series, a sustainability breakthrough
Peerless Audio, the speaker component business of Tymphany, is proud to announce our HVS-40, the first in the series of HVS full range transducers
BRIGEND, Wales, and UPPSALA, Sweden December 11, 2024 - Our customers needed a competitively priced transducer that put sustainability at the forefront of its design. We blended advances in sustainable design practice, sustainable materials, and innovative manufacturing processes with a focus on production efficiencies and repeatability.
The result: The HVS40, an ideal price-to-performance ratio in a shallow form factor — and the perfect solution for many system designs.
Carbon reduction certification by TÜV Rheinland®
In July 2024, HVS-40 received the ISO 14067:2018 certification for proof of carbon reduction from traditional transducer design. It features a higher output, fewer resources, and a 36.9% carbon footprint reduction.
Sustainability breakthroughs in cone assembly
The HVS-40 leverages molecular bonding technology of surround to cone. This allows for the elimination of adhesive bonds between cone and surround with a sizeable reduction in adhesive volume in the product assembly compared with comparable Peerless products.
To eliminate wastewater pollution, we replaced traditional paper material with a proprietary high performance thin-ply glass fiber cone material with excellent stiffness to weight ratio. This improves high frequency extension, along with batch-to-batch acoustic performance consistency, enhancing quality and process capability.
Sustainability breakthroughs in motor assembly
HVS-40 embodies a highly optimized motor structure that minimizes rare earth (RE) magnet material while maximizing acoustic performance.
Cost and production advances
HVS-40 is optimized for improved costs, lead time, and quality control in multiple areas.
- Modular design: Limits component count across the product series
- Improved automated assembly process: Reduced operations and costs and a marked increase in productivity versus competitors
- Vertical integration: Insourcing of the cone, surround, and frame production
- Optimized rare earth magnets: Lower magnet cost compared to competitive drivers with comparable performance
