MODEL: 10.6
A word from our senior engineer
The Thor Series 6 takes Richter subwoofers to a whole new level.
We have focussed on Music, integration with other Richter
products for a seamless experience and powerful Home Theatre
Performance.
This is the most powerful, extended yet most musical Richter
Sub-woofer to date, delivering accurate, fast deep bass. We also
wanted the new Thor Series 6 to be more at home with it’s totally
redesigned cabinet.
More power
The amplifier is new High Power Class D Design delivering 450W
(RMS) and 800W Peak power delivery. This means a level of
control and speed ideal for any Music or Home Theatre system.
Driver
A New high excursion, long stroke driver has been used for
greater cone travel, driven by a double magnet engine. This new driver is designed to
move a lot of air and to do it fast with a minimal amount of ringing noise. State of the art
materials guarantee a long life and keeping to spec.
Full digital control
The Thor series 6 uses a new digital signal processor (DSP) with 3 custom modes for, Music,
Home Theatre and also Merlin mode to make the perfect partnership with the Award-
Winning Merlin MKV.
Cabinet and vents
The cabinet has been redesigned into a rock-solid cube using 25mm MDF and internal
bracing for a rigid construction. The large dynamic front ports now can now also be
tuned with the supplied foam port plugs for even greater control of room and equipment
variables to get the best possible performance.
