• Negligible skin effect below 100 kHz many orders of magnitude below conventional wire-wound types.
• High winding tension and vacuum fusing of faces provides high dimensional stability, effectively locking the conductors in place. Wire-wound inductors, which allow relative motion of conductors due to electromagnetic forces, will exhibit FM distortion by the process of reactance modulation.
• Flat inductive reactance from 5 Hz to 50 kHz.
• No saturation distortion due to air-core design.
• Inductors contain no magnetic materials.
• Reduced power loss.
• Highest space factor (ratio of conductor cross area to total cross-section) means lower DC resistance within comparable dimensions. Negligible power loss due to skin-effect.
• Extremely low stored charge.
• Cool operation even during prolonged high output power operation.
• The high space factor and winding density results in improved heat dissipation.

Since we introduced our Air Core Inductors in 1997 they have become standard fixtures in many of the worlds finest speakers, and thousand of audiophiles have improved their sound by personally upgrading their crossover circuits with our products.

Goertz developed the combination of high grade OFC copper with polypropylene film as the dielectric, wound onto a non-hygroscopic core able to endure the sometimes high working temperature without long term shrinkage. We knew that a loose center will allow relative motion of layers due to electromagnetic forces, leading to FM distortion, so we chose LEXAN™ a high strength, super stable engineering resin for our cores.
We also developed the vacuum fusing process in order to further preserve the long-term integrity of our inductors..

Research has no limits, so throughout the years we have worked on improving our product and proprietary manufacturing equipment. As a result we are now winding our inductors even tighter, to closer tolerances and at increased productivity. Inductors are calibrated within 2.5% of nominal, wound with superior tightness and fused at both ends, hermetically protecting the conductor (be it copper or fine silver) against tarnishing with time.

We have also increased the number of standard values.
