AIRMOTIV SPEAKERS
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our new Emotiva Airmotiv™ loudspeakers.
The Emotiva Airmotiv series of speakers represents the culmination of years of research and
experience in producing home and professional loudspeakers offering both excellent technical
performance and superb sound quality. Our Airmotiv speakers were designed from the start to be
equally at home in an audiophile stereo system or a high-end home theater.
Our design philosophy is simple: if a speaker can reproduce the entire audible spectrum, as
accurately as possible, with very little distortion or coloration, then it will sound good - whether
you’re playing classical music, or jazz, or the sound track of your favorite blockbuster movie.
For high-frequency reproduction, we chose our Airmotiv™ folded ribbon tweeter. This tweeter,
which we introduced in our Airmotiv Stealth studio monitors, offers excellent frequency response,
very low distortion, great detail retrieval, and high power handling capability. And, last but certainly
not least, the Airmotiv folded ribbon tweeter sounds superb at all listening levels.
For middle and low frequencies we chose advanced woven fiber cones, which deliver smooth
response over the entire audio spectrum, and blend well with our Airmotiv tweeters.
The crossover network used in each Airmotiv speaker was carefully designed and optimized to work
perfectly with the drivers we chose for each, and features audiophile quality film capacitors, air core
inductors, and precision resistors in critical locations.
The Airmotiv speaker cabinets are crafted from thick, heavily braced, acoustically inert HDF to
ensure maximum rigidity and resistance to stray vibration; the front panel is machined from a solid
slab of 25mm HDF. The faceted front panel design, borrowed from our studio monitors, not only
adds a stylishly futuristic look to our Airmotiv speakers, but also serves a very practical purpose
- to minimize diffraction effects and room interactions. The front panels are coated with multiple
coats of attractive satin-finish black lacquer, which looks elegant while resisting fingerprints and
scratches, and the sides are covered with tough, good looking textured black vinyl. And, for those
of you who prefer to keep their technology under wraps, all of our new Airmotiv speakers include
removable grilles.
All of the speakers in our new Airmotiv series are carefully timbre-matched, so you can feel free to
mix and match whichever models are most appropriate to your particular installation requirements.
The Airmotiv T1+, T2+, and T3+ towers have sufficiently extended bass response to be used without
a subwoofer for stereo music; the Airmotiv T0+ tower is perfect for systems where space is at a
premium; the Airmotiv B1+ and B2+ bookshelf monitors, while they have a somewhat more limited
bass output, offer a well-balanced sound, and may also be used without a subwoofer although,
for home theater applications, or where prodigious amounts of bass are required, we recommend
a subwoofer. The Airmotiv C1+, C2+, and C3+ are superb quality center channel speakers, which
deliver crystal clear easily intelligible dialog. The Airmotiv E2+ features dual high frequency drivers,
and can be configured as either a direct radiating bipole or dipole surround. The Airmotiv A1 can
be mounted on a wall as a direct firing surround sound speaker, or configured as an upward-firing
ceiling reflected height speaker, and the A2+ can be securely mounted on either wall or ceiling with
our new Easy-Secure mounting bracket.
Happy listening!
