Not to be forgotten, the connection point of each speaker
offers potential pitfalls for installation woes and signal
degradations.
Each binding post is made from copper (not brass or
other lower conductivity metals), then CNC machined
into shape. After the machining process is completed,
each component is polished to insure burr free, smooth
function and clean cosmetics. The fi nal step is Rhodium
plating. Chosen for its excellent conductivity, corrosion
resistance and hardness; all serve to protect the copper
material and music signal carried within. Each post
accepts commonly used wire terminations - banana,
spade, pin and bare wire. Input jumpers, made from
the same materials as the binding posts, create a simple
bridge between inputs without any compromise in quality
for use when Bi-wiring is not employed.
The exclusive terminal plate in brushed and anodized
aluminum does not only have a beefy look but it also
offers a, rigid resonance free performance. The reason
for its size is the massive crossovers which are mounted
on the back and they need all the space they can get.
Mounting the crossovers directly on the plate gives the
option for easy future upgrades…
