•
Driver configuration
o
2.5 way, WTW (Woofer - Tweeter - Woofer) quasi-line
o
Woofer radiation pattern mates well to electrostatic array
o
Reduces room mode coupling, eases placement
o
Excellent phase alignment for image focus
o
Vertical image stability
o
Minimal floor bounce effect
•
Electrostatic panels
o
Two identical panels in each speaker, mounted in a barometrically
isolated sub-enclosure
o
Vertical array; 7” x 16
o
Protected by an integral barrier
o
80 in
2
[520 cm
2
] forward radiating
o
Tough, stable, injection molded stators
o
66-element, parallel wire, stator electrodes (total of 132 electrode
elements per panel)
o
Unique panel construction and materials are immune to the effects of
wide and rapid temperature and humidity swings
o
Optimal sonic membrane material
Thickness less than 1/15th of a sheet of 20 lb. paper -- lighter
than the air it is driving (air load exceeds in-band mass load)
Acts as a virtual air driver with force applied evenly over its
whole surface -- no breakup, no coloration
Properly damped, unlike see-through electrostatics, for most
accurate transients
No midrange or treble coloration
Distortion is far below audibility
Will not lose tension or degrade
•
Woofers
o
Two identical, 8” [25.5 cm], low mass, long excursion, alloy cone, low
distortion, low inductance, high resolution drivers connected in
parallel
o
Operate far below their breakup frequencies for nearly ideal pistonic
motion and thus practically no coloration
o
Seamless integration with the electrostatics
o
Strong, accurate bass, not boomy club bass
o
Tight, palpable impact and slam
o
Direct connection to the amplifier eliminates the effects of speaker
cables
