Introduction
The EX10 is a 2-way high output, active, compact, full-range speaker system. Design objectives for the EX10 were
focused on the expansion of KV2 Audio's primary philosophy of speakers systems with increased dynamic range,
very high output and a consistent sound character no matter what the output level. The EX10 sets new levels of
performance for compact cabinets achieved through the integration of new amplifier, transducer and electronic
control technologies that are closely tied to a passion for taking performance to the next level.
Electronics
Amplifier power, electronic crossovers, phase alignment, equalization, time correction and speaker protection are
integrated into the EX10's amplifier module. On-board electronics ensures fast, easy set up and complete control.
An improved version of KV2 Audio's switch mode, current enhancing low frequency amplifier has been developed for
the EX10. The new configuration improves overall system efficiency and increases output
,
allowing passive radiation
of heat to take place through a unique "fin-less" heat sink that can be placed in any position or direction. This ensures
cool operation in horizontal or vertical applications. Additionally, the EX10 amplifier unit contains an internally located
electric fan that is operated by a temperature sensing circuit which will slowly bring the fan online as required
in extreme, high temperature situations.
Months of research were invested into designing circuitry that ensures that the extreme dynamic range exemplified by
the speaker system is maintained even under clipping conditions. The real test of the EX10's limits is when it is exposed
to the rigors and demands of live audio playback where consistent clipping of amplifiers, generation of distortion
artifacts, dramatic increases in the floor and the elimination of dynamic range put the product to an extreme test.
The EX10's high frequency compression driver is powered and controlled by KV2 Audio's standard low intermodulation
distortion, Class A/B, push-pull circuitry, high and mid frequency amplifier design. Metal Oxide Silicon Field Effect
Transistors (MOSFET) are used for the output stage and the compression driver coupled through a transformer
balanced speaker output. The entire performance strategy for this type of design is based on producing the lowest
intermodulation distortion possible and the highest audio quality in the critical mid and high operating bands.
