Product details

Dayton Audio DAEX32EP-4 Thruster 32mm Exciter 40W 4 Ohm

Dayton Audio's DAEX32EP-4 Thruster exciter is built to turn large, thick, rigid surfaces into speakers. The 32 mm voice coil is attached to a steel spider for maximum restoring force when large amounts of power are applied, making it perfect for large glass panes, furniture, and surfaces that would normally resist the effects of an exciter.

A neodymium magnet is employed to create maximum magnetic flux around the proprietary voice coil for increased sensitivity when compared to similar sized exciters. In turn, this reduces power requirements and makes it possible to use very small Class D audio amplifiers, without sacrificing total output.

To ensure maximum acoustic energy transfer between the transducer and the surface to which it is attached, 3M VHB (Very High Bond) adhesive is pre-applied to the main body ... just peel and stick! Two male spade quick-disconnect terminals are built onto the main body for quick electrical connection.

A great field of application for this exciter is so-called DML or flat-panel speakers. DML stands for Distributed Mode Loudspeakers and is a term for speakers that catch the eye with their incredibly slim design.

A basic guide to creating invisible sound with exciters

Curious about how to create invisible sound with exciters? In this blog, Ben Zenker, an expert with more than 15 years of experience and 10 internationally reviewed publications, shares his in-depth knowledge on material selection, installation and optimising sound quality. An indispensable resource for the passionate DIY audio enthusiast.

Note: An exciter's frequency response and sensitivity are completely dependent on the exciter's designated surface. Thinner, smaller materials will tend to be louder and create a mid/tweeter response. Thicker, larger materials (with multiple exciters) will be slightly quieter but result in a more full-range sound.

Bought 4 of these for my DIY DML speakers and they sound just great. Of course, they lack bass in the lowest range, but that's just what they are designed for - mid and high range. Overall I am pleased with the quality and the sound they produce!

Zeer indrukwekkend geluid! En bovenal: uitstekende service van soundimports.nl, met een zeer vlotte communicatie! Zelden zo’n adequate dienst na verkoop meegemaakt!

By Jeremia Aelbrecht on 25 October 2022

Great!!!!! Running 3 of these on styrofoam panel, what a sound!!!! :D

By Nick on 17 July 2022

Bought a couple of Dayton audio exciters. Painless transaction to the UK. Items sold sans taxes and vat paid UK side. No 160 euro minimum as previously. So it seems all has now been resolved in trading with third world countries (as the UK has now become after brexit!). Delighted with smooth transaction, quick delivery and good communication. I will doubtless use again. Recommended.

Positiv: Leise, kraft- und wirkungsvoll, die Exciter haben meine Erwartungen diesbezüglich voll erfüllt. Negativ: Der Anschluss der Lautsprecherkabel mit den 2,8mm-Schnelltrenn-Kabelschuhen ist etwas fragil, ich würde mir eine robustere Anschlussmöglichkeit zB mit Schraubklemmen wünschen. Bei den gelieferten 4 Excitern hat sich bei einem Exciter ein Kabelschuh bei der Montage aus dem Gehäuse gelöst, ich konnte ihn dann wieder zurück ...

Positive eccellente + eccellente ...

By Anthony on 8 March 2022

Excellent performance as an entry-level approach to tactile immersion. Even better when combined with large BK and TST models for multi-unit / multi-channel effects. Speaking of which, RaceBass offers a solution for better attaching these to seats for motion or non-motion rigs.

By Mr Latte on 22 February 2022

The speakers was werry good but the glue was no good 2 speaker’s felt off after short time

By Jan G. on 16 March 2021

Very good as expected.

By Ziad S. on 16 March 2021

Used on a simracing rig, they are fine. One on the padals (even too strong) and one under the wooden chair (this one is a bit weak, would be better with two of those). Frequency 40 to 120 are ok. More than 200 a they are audible.

By Alen B. on 27 February 2021

zal het iedereen aanraden,in de muziek,jammer dat ik eerder, actieve boxen heb gekocht,wist niet dat zoiets als exciter bestond.

By j K. on 23 January 2021

Mega gut für wenig Geld! bereits der zweite Kauf und werde wohl auch noch mehr davon bestellen

Added these as a second pair of exciters on my existing speakers in series/parallel with a pair of DAEX32U-4 exciters, on two 10mm polyurethane foam sheets with a 10mm balsa frame. The sound is greatly improved; with warmer and a full-bodied output. The bass-range is slightly improved as well, while the sub-base range could still use some improvement, for this I'm considering building a new amp and a small subwoofer.

Ein ganz interessanter Aufbau und damit verbundene Wirkungsweise. Leider war ein Klebepad überaltert und musste ersetzt werden.

Surprisingly good little driver. Have only tested in a proof of concept set up, but very promising indeed.

By Geert V. on 16 July 2020

For a DML projekt on polystyrene worked OK. A bit exaggerated midrange Preferenser Acoustc Guitar

By Nils T. on 14 July 2020

Excellent power and performance for their size. I'm using four units directly attached to a bucket seat in a sim racing application and they deliver high quality tactile feedback in the 20 to 185Hz range. Highly recommended!

By Paul S. on 12 July 2020

A fantastisk little speaker, having lots of fun testing .

By Roland H. on 30 May 2020

Super good...

By søren j. on 16 May 2020

Very good performance and used together with stiff polystyren suprisingly godd sound quality. Highly recommended!

By Christer V. on 27 September 2019

Fascinating, getting audio from almost any surface.

By Anders J. on 17 September 2019

Excellent units, work fantastically well for Sim Racing enthusiasts when installing to the back of a seat. Used with Simhub I am working on 8 channel based effects and powered with 2x Behringer EPQ 304 amps. These will accept 2.8mm cable crimps.

By Mr Latte on 6 September 2019

Nice speaker. Like the price too

By Christian M. on 20 August 2019

Damn... that's sounds goood

By barbara s. on 16 August 2019

This is a very capable exciter able to drive large panels to loud volumes. It is well built and easy to apply. I found on a 600mm by 120mm 3mm ply panel I needed very little eq to flatten the response. Used with a subwoofer crossing over at 100hz you can get an excellent result.

By Steve K. on 13 August 2019

As a first DIY project I decided to go with the DAEX32EP-4 due to the good reviews. I found that they are are very good quality for the price and if hooked up properly they put out some nice sounds. I am planning to use a DSP and EQ it further down the road. I do recommend them for beginners in DIY projects such as myself. I found using them a breeze. Now i own a set of DML speakers which I'm very proud of putting together in up to 1 hour....

Deze thruster ernaar ik als een optimaal product. Zijn geringe formaat, hoge belastbaarheid( met correcte filtering tegen lage tonen) en zowel klankkwaliteit en rendement, laatsten afhankelijk van juiste materiaalkeuze plaat en positionering - zowel van de plaats van de thruster op het plaatmateriaal alsmede de plaatsing van deze plaat- wordt beloont met een geluid die je eerder bij high end verwacht dan van een luidsprekersysteem welke zo voorde...

By Andreas M. on 2 March 2019

These are highly recommendable speaker elements for those interested in distributed mode audio, especially for surround speakers in home cinema, where they can be hidden in poster boards etc...

werkt zeer goed, echt een aanrader!

Als omschreven. Erg goede geluids qualiteit.
