Commentary
A two way speaker system with coaxial speakers and a tandem layout of a woofer of the same diameter.
In order to achieve balance matching when driving a double woofer, it is equipped with a unique mechanical filter, enabling smooth wide-area playback.
A 13 cm laminated pulp cone is used in the lower part of the coaxial unit.
In addition, by strengthening the low-frequency magnetic circuits and using OFC (oxygen-free copper) wires for the voice coil, we are improving transmission characteristics.
In addition, a soft dome unit with a Tetron base coated with two types of emulsion is adopted for the high frequency part.
In developing this unit, we focused on the connection between the low and high frequencies and improved the linearity of the mid-range by controlling the stiffness of the woofer.
A 13-cm unit with laminated pulp-based corn is used in the tandem unit for the low band.
Each unit has a double magnet to cancel magnetic leakage, and is equipped with a shield cap for double magnetic protection.
We have also also been newly designed. The high-pass filter combines carefully selected film capacitors and BP (electrolytic) capacitors to achieve higher quality in the high-frequency range.
The enclosure uses a rear ducted ballast system with a high-density particle board to eliminate interference from units secured to the front baffle.
In addition, we thoroughly design for high sound quality in every detail such as port diameter and damper material distribution.
This product is finished with Tasman maple.
