Technical presentation
Cabinet design
The box design with a narrow baffle - is not only an
aesthetically neat shape, but also has some advantages
in terms of acoustics.
The cabinet is made from sturdy MDF board, which
offers good sonic qualities.
The cabinet is further strengthened with 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
frequency response. The ribbon cone is super light
and only 18 microns thick. It is a sandwich
construction made from rosin-aluminium-rosin
that has been hardened at 320 degrees Celsius.
The magnet system is a 2 row high-efficient
neodymium magnets in a moulded chassis of
ceramic carbon steel.
Fishbone shaped contactors in aluminium, results
in a low connection resistance and good heat
distribution.
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
different 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"
magnesium driver from the Seas Excel series that
have extreme performance. We claim that finding a
better 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
basket is absolutely non-magnetic, which
contributes to a higher efficiency of the driver.
A strong magnet combined with the light cone
ensures a high efficiency and a good transient
response.
Heavy copper rings mounted above and below the
T-shaped pole piece reduce non linear- and
modulation-distortion and increases the overload
margin.
