Can anyone identify this inductor?


Its a speaker crossover from a well known brand. Most coils on it are standard air coil style... but one looks like a transformer - wound vertically around a HUGE iron core which protrudes out the sides, then varnished/sealed and puttied to the board. Stamped with the company’s name on it. (All other components look sourced).

I reached out to the company waiting for an answer, so I won’t mention the name. But I don’t think they will reply.

Iron inductors seem like a no-no. In fact, I got huge coherency improvements by taking anti-static and EMI measures on it with some usual hi-fi tweak products. I do not know if they even tried to orient it correctly.

Anyone know? cheers

It is a transformer! Interesting!

So what is the brand and model of the speaker?

Can you post a picture of the crossover?

If it only has 30 turns winding and two leads, It could be an C core inductor for woofer low pass filter, because of its extremely low resistance!
