Dragster - Where Audio Is Art
With a rich European heritage stemming back to 1997, Dragster was conceived by a group of audiophiles passionate about their car audio. Back then it was just about amalgamating to produce a modest number of superior products. Fast forward to today though and Dragster is a modern car audio company, represented the world over. It's a company founded by engineers rather than accountants; conducive to it successfully combining the latest technologies and methodologies with intelligent design and stylish accoutrements. The primary mantra at Dragster is Audio is Art. Mindful of this, the company produces products aplenty at varying price points. Meaning it's able to provide you with the absolute best solution for your car audio requirements, no matter your fiscal prerequisite.

Academy Series – Articulation Beyond Astounding
Not everyone is looking to be hammered into submission. On the contrary there's an entire echelon of discerning audiophiles who desire supreme sound quality above all else. Articulated deep bass, delectably controlled midrange, and supremely accurate highs. Barriers are there to be broken, and budget is of secondary concern. This is the territory of Dragsters superb Academy stable. Developed with every last detail heavily scrutinised; these products encroach upon the very fabric of car audio perfection.

Design Ideologies
Sure the company might have a peculiar name, nonetheless there is nothing odd about the high quality products it produces. Because Dragster products are designed by experienced engineers using the latest materials and proven technical methodologies, the product quality is simply without peer.

Where Vibrancy And Heritage Combine
Being Italian in heritage, you can understand the desire to make use of the warm colours and shapes associated with Italian culture. After all, it is a culture famous for its fashion and automotive exploits, not to mention the centuries of colourful art that has shaped and inspired generations. Ergo the engineering team at Dragster endeavour to combine their engineering acumen with art in every product they produce.

Welcome To The Academy
The Academy series are the flagship offering from Dragster. Representing countless hours of research and development, these high-performance components redefine what’s possible in car audio; blending cutting-edge sound reproduction with unparalleled craftsmanship. Every meticulously engineered component is designed to deliver audio that’s pure, precise, and dynamic. Thus providing you with a listening experience where every note is rendered with stunning clarity and accuracy.

Testing, Tweaking, Tuning
The Academy components are world leaders in performance and innovation. Using the most advanced simulation tools, Dragster engineers have refined every aspect of these components, from their lightweight space-age materials to their ultra-efficient structures. The result is a sound containing minimal distortion, returning an immersive and most lifelike listening experience. Whether it’s the subtle details in a complex symphony or the deep punch of bass-heavy tracks, the Academy components are simply exceptional in their ability to produce depth, clarity and uber precision.

The Aural Powerhouse – The AMW-65CNC Midranges
The AMW-65CNC is a high-performance midrange driver designed to provide a precise reproduction of the lower through to middle bass frequency range. Featuring blended poly fibre cones for enhanced damping, impressive rigidity and minimal distortion; the diaphragm remains light yet strong. Beneath is a CNC machined motor surrounded by a generous 90 mm x 40 mm x 15 mm Y35 grade ferrite magnet structure. The 1.2″ / 30.5 mm high-efficiency voice coil ensures responsive performance across a wide 65 Hz to 7000 Hz frequency range. With a robust machined aluminum chassis for durability, thermal management and magnetic inertness, this driver is perfect for those who demand a dynamic sound that’s clear, powerful and controlled. Rated at 50 Watts with a sensitivity of 89 dB due to it’s low moving mass; the AWM-65CNC delivers a rich, precise midrange performance with depth and detail aplenty.
