For 2013, JVC announced an updated lineup of DRVN entry level coaxial and component speaker options including five new coaxial selections plus two continuing custom fit sizes and a component system package. Woofer drive cones feature Carbon Mica combined with a hybrid surround comprised of cloth and rubber for enhanced longevity and light, quick playback response. Carbon Mica cones use a thin yet hard profile to increase response accuracy. Using this combination of materials, SPL response has increased throughout the entire frequency range versus previous models. Speaker grilles include a tri-way design, which balances the midrange output to fill the vehicle uniformly. They also feature a Poly-Ether Imide cone midrange, tweeter, and super tweeters while both woofer and midrange or tweeter drivers feature strontium ferrite magnets.
