A few words on your new speakers
A good cabinet is the essential foundation of any loudspeaker. The FusedMass cabinets in the Gato Audio FM series incorporate several
noteworthy details. The cabinets are made from high-density fi breboard and a layer of vibration dampening material. Parts of the cabinets
are made of up to six layers of mixed materials that together with heavy internal bracing, secures a very effi
cient resonance dampening
construction.
Excellent drivers are the foundation of true-to-life sound. The drivers’ capability to react instantly to the provided signal together with total
control of mechanical resonance is crucial. The drivers in the FM speaker series are carefully constructed to comply with our high demands
for technical quality. The midrange reproduction of any speaker is without discussion the most important, whether it is the reproduction
of vocals, a high-hat or drums, since all have important tonal information based in this frequency area. The bass/midranges are specially
designed for mid- and high frequency response providing a clean and dynamic impulse response second to none.
The unique state-of-the-art ring radiator tweeter not only yields a useful output far beyond the capability of the human ear, thereby
providing instruments with their natural harmonic structure, but it also adds the crucial benefi ts of extremely low distortion and coloration
of the reproduced material.
The heart of any Gato Audio FM speaker is an advanced PurePhase crossover adorned with high quality components: Heavy gauge coils,
low-resonance capacitors and non-inductive resistors mounted on a high-quality fi berglass PCB.
Hundreds of hours have been spent designing the network to comply with the drivers’ frequency response and impedance, while carefully
considering phase, resonance and impulse response. Finally, we trimmed the sound, not only providing a fl at frequency response but
providing a tantalizingly lifelike sound.
All of the above is draped in a beautiful exterior design, as small as possible and perfectly fi nished in handcrafted veneer or paint.
The supplied magnetic cloth grilles are designed to produce a minimum of coloration and distortion to the sound when mounted. Using
a small and close-fi tting frame clad in sound-transparent fabric ensures that any loss of audio detail is kept at a minimum, and that
diff ractions are well out of the critical midrange area. In addition, it off ers protection for the drivers while enhancing both the beautiful
fi nish and the elegant, simple lines in the design even further.
