Hy Drive transducers represent a revolutionary improvement in bass speaker technology and a major leap forward, fusing paper and aluminum in a roadworthy speaker design that is more robust and efficient than anything available. With Hartke's Hy Drive series, you get the best of both worlds: the warm tone of traditional paper cones and the clear, punchy attack of aluminum. Hy Drive's patented Hybrid Cone Technology produces a speaker that uses an outside paper cone to push a warm, deep low frequency and an inner aluminum cone that produces mids and highs that cut, yet still remain sweet. Watch the Hy Drive 112 product video: One of the most important advances with the Hy Drive speaker is its power-to-weight ratio. A Hy Drive speaker weighs 40% less than traditional speakers and handles 500 watts for the highest power-to-weight ratio of any bass speaker available. But the innovation runs even deeper. Because of its cast aluminum frame and neodymium magnets, Hy Drive speakers operate cooler and deliver more reliable power handling at peak performance.

S. and International Patents Pending) Hy Drive 112 Bass Cabinet Expanding on the already inclusive line of Hy Drive bass cabinets, Hartke introduces the Hy Drive 112, a specially tuned, ported bass cabinet that employs a single 12 neodymium hybrid cone speaker. And to make the Hy Drive 112 more accommodating for a variety of settings and playing styles, the speaker has been engineered as a dual-impedance driver, allowing you to switch between 4 and 8-ohm impedance levels for additional flexibility. Offering a warm, solid bottom end that’s never too boomy, the Hy Drive 112 provides ample power handling in an extremely portable, lightweight enclosure (less than 35 pounds). With its 300 watt driver, this cabinet can bridge the gap between smaller, quieter gigs and big, loud shows.
I've not had to find Hartke circuits before, I can't seem to find a company to contact even. Can someone help with the circuit or a pointer please? Thanks. Brian Samson, in New York. Email them and ask for it. Include your serial number, that makes it sound like you are actually working on one. In general, when I contact a company for schematics, assuming I do not already have a relationship with the company, I phrase it like this: A customer has presented us with a model XYZ for repair. We need schematics to service this unit. Brian Swatton likes this. Education is what you're left with after you have forgotten what you have learned. Thanks Enzo, I often approach manufacturers and usually find them pretty helpful. I usually include a little info about the business and the piece of kit. Yeah, I just use the language and style to leave the impression I am not some kid in his basement. Education is what you're left with after you have forgotten what you have learned.
