The magnet system is equipped with heavy copper rings and a solid copper
phase plug, which reduce flux modulation and eddy current distortion. The
phase plug also guides the sound waves from the driver to the listener and
reduces cancellations which creates a smoother frequency response. The solid
copper phase plug offers enhanced cooling and improves the air circulation
around the coil windings, the coil temperature variation as well as the
consequent sensitivity modulation are lowered. Further, the power handling
capacity is increased.
Magnet system with bumped back plate makes room for extreme coil
excursion. Heavy copper rings mounWooted above and below the T-shapes
pole piece reduce non-linear and modulation distortion and increase overload
margin.
The extreme stiff and stable injection molded metal basket case keeps the
critical components in perfect alignment. Large windows in the basket both
above and below the spider reduce sound reflection, air flow noise and cavity
resonances to a minimum.
Gold plated terminals mounted in a glass fiber reinforced plate to reduce
contact resistance and improve reliability.
CROSSOVER FILTER &
BINDINGS
The crossover is an advanced Linkwitz/Riley type, with 12 and 18 dB/octave
slope for midrange and tweeter, which offers minimal phase shiftings and good
transient response. The filter uses MOX resistors, air wound coils and top notch
capacitors from Mundorf.
The internal cabling is realized in 99.99% pure copper wire, which guarantees
highest signal transparency. To reduce skin effects and interferences we use
several twisted cables for each conductor.
The connectors are copper and of bi-wiring type so that you can connect to
the amplifier with double cables (bi-wiring), or connect to two amplifiers (bi-
amping) for further improving the sound.
The following coupling modes are available:
1. Upper te lower terminal (bridging present) - Default setting, the
loudspeaker is fed with the entire frequency range.
Without the bridging between upper and lower terminal:
2. Upper terminal. - The signal is only fed to the tweeter.
3. Lower terminal. - Now the signal is fed to the woofer only. (See further:
