Aramid fibers are a type of synthetic fiber made from linked benzene rings and amide bonds. They come in two types - para and meta. Para-type aramid fibers like Technora and Twaron are known for their superior tensile strength, elasticity, impact and fatigue resistance, and chemical and heat resistance. They are made into filament yarn, chopped fiber, staple fiber and spun yarn and used in applications like rope, cable, cord, rubber materials, construction, reinforcement of plastics, and safety materials. Meta-type aramid fibers like Teijincones are very heat resistant and do not ignite or melt, making them suitable for uses as blast inhibitors. Aramid fibers are also

 Pioneer speakers
 long stands of Aramid fibers into the
mix, along with the polypropylene and
carbon and Rigilite
 makes the cone more dense, much
stronger, and even more durable
 More powerful bass. Rich, full-bodied
sound character with excellent
midrange depth.
 The open, natural sound found in paper
cones (but without the fragility of
paper).
 Durability. The cones stand up to high
power levels and the tough conditions
within a car, such as temperature
extremes and humidity, that will thrash
weaker speakers.
