Exo - basically means outside or outwards typically.
Thermic - Has 'therm' in it, usually has to do with temperature.
Put em together, it means subs always generates heat (when they're being used anyways).
As an aside, I haven't heard the word isothermic used in a sentence before outside of Thermodynamics (at the U). Congrats, even though it was wrong

Wow - I got the "stupid" twice today [img]tongue.gif[/img] I'm on a roll [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]
I was just poking fun MrNissanDood. Snobby boxdorks use the cromulant terms Isothermic and Adiabatic to embiggen themselves instead of just saying: "I stuffed 'er good"
The loose correlation being that the stuffing does indeed convert energy to heat so you could make a LONG stretch and say that it absorbs heat from the enclosure (Isothermic). Conversely an un-stuffed enclosure will have no internal temperature gradient so again the loooooooooooong stretch to to it being "adiabatic"
My point was that the woofer system will always generate heat as a whole and thus it is exothermic. Well from a thermal dynamics point of view anyway [img]tongue.gif[/img] I don't want to hear no conservation of energy crap...
