A movable diaphragm is positioned within the open frame interior and operably connected to the rear frame. A magnet assembly is disposed forward of the diaphragm and coupled to the center hub, the magnet assembly defining a magnetic air gap annularly disposed about the central axis. A voice coil is disposed in the magnetic air gap surrounding the magnet assembly and operably connected to the diaphragm. A first spider is coupled between the voice coil and the rear frame behind the diaphragm, and a second spider coupled between the diaphragm and the front frame and disposed forward of the diaphragm.
