Cabinet design 

 

The box design with a narrow baffle - is not only an 

aesthetically neat shape, but also offer advantages in 
terms of acoustics.

The cabinet is made from sturdy MDF board, which 
offers good sonic qualities.

The   cabinet  is  further strengthened   with   internal 
bars,   which   in   total   ensures   a   very   stable 

construction.

Tweeter driver

 

We have selected a ribbon tweeter which provides 

superior transient response and a very flat fre-
quency response. The ribbon cone is super light 

and only 18 microns thick. It is a sandwich con-
struction made from rosin-aluminium-rosin that 

has been hardened at 320 degrees Celsius. 

The magnet system is a 2 row high-efficient neody-
mium magnets in a moulded chassis of ceramic car-

bon steel.

Fishbone shaped contactors in aluminium, results 
in a low connection resistance and good heat distri-

bution.

The driver has high power durability and handles 
frequencies up to 40000 Hz which makes it DVD-

Audio and SACD-ready.

Woofer/midrange

driver

 

After evaluating a large number of drivers from dif-

ferent manufacturers we selected one from Seas, a 
company that has a solid reputation in the area of 

high quality speaker drivers. You find Seas drivers 
in many well-known High End speakers. 

For woofer/midrange we decided on a 6,5" mag-

nesium driver from the Seas Excel series that have 
extreme performance. We claim that finding a bet-

ter 6,5" driver on the market is a very difficult task.

The surface treated magnesium cone is extremely 
light but still extremely stiff and effectively reduces 

resonances.
The rubber surrounding makes sure that no edge 

resonances are present.

The moulded metal basket is a "high flow" type that 
is acoustically transparent with high precision as 

the basket is shaped exactly due to the moulding 
process. This makes sure that the basket is very 

stable and efficiently reduces resonances. The bas-
ket is absolutely non-magnetic, which contributes 

to a higher efficiency of the driver.

A strong magnet combined with the light cone en-
sures a high efficiency and a good transient re-

sponse.

Heavy copper rings mounted above and below the 
T-shaped pole piece reduce non linear- and modu-

lation-distortion and increases the overload mar-
gin.
