o
Bookshelf
removes some energy in the 50 Hz band to counteract excessive
wall reinforcement when placed very close to the front wall.
•
Tweeter/midrange level setting from normal to -6 dB
•
ESL panels
o
One panel in each speaker, mounted in a barometrically isolated sub-
enclosure, 18 cm wide x 20 cm high [7"H x 8"W]
o
Protected by an integral barrier
o
260 square cm [40 square inch] forward radiating area per array
o
Tough, stable, injection molded, ABS stator frames
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
Acts as a virtual air driver with force applied evenly over its whole
surface -- no breakup, no coloration
Properly damped, unlike see-through electrostatics
Introduces absolutely no midrange or treble coloration, and
distortion is far below audibility
Will not lose its tension or degrade over time
o
1.5 way tweeter/mid design controls horizontal dispersion and eliminates
electrical EQ network
•
Woofers
o
Two identical, 18 cm [7"], low mass, alloy cone, extra low distortion, low
inductance, high resolution drivers with dual short circuit paths and heavy
cast aluminum basket
o
Operate far below their breakup frequencies and their Xmax for
practically no cone coloration
o
Seamless acoustical integration with the ESL
o
Strong, accurate bass, not boomy dance club bass
o
Exceptionally low series resistance in crossover conserves damping factor
and maximizes cone control
•
Enclosure
o
Sealed (acoustic suspension) for best woofer transient response, minimal
group delay, and best integration with ESL array
o
High mass, 25 mm [1”] thick, well damped, well braced walls for
negligible enclosure radiation
o
Baffle step is reduced with front edge scoops, which are also visually
interesting
•
Input
o
Single pair of binding posts, not for bi-amping
o
Bi-amping option available
