I've been thru this entire line of magnet stuff a couple times.
One possible conclusion is that the magnets / gap are the same because MYLAR has such a low
'cooeficient of stretch'. Whatever THAT measure is called.
So it wouldn't be much advantage to have more gap when the mylar won't stretch to fill it.
I've also messed with Ultra-High strength magnets. You can hurt yourself with them via 'pinch'.
And the REAL strong ones will send you to the doctor. They are typically brittle, too. I couldn't imaagine what it takes to assemble a pole piece with such magnets. Keep them well spaced from each other, too!
One question remains, however. How much louder will the RIBBON play than a planar driver? The ribbon WILL benefit from stronger magnets, too.
Problem is making a very sensitive ribbon with a much LESS sensitive panel.
Too much is never enough
