Commentary

This is a speaker system developed by reviewing all parts as a standard model in the 49th year of Diatone.

A 30 cm cone type woofer is installed in the low range.
The newly developed New Aramid Hybrid Cone is used for the diaphragm. This diaphragm is made of Aramid Hybrid FRP with an intra-ply structure made of Aramid Organic Fiber, which combines light weight, high rigidity and moderate internal loss, and Amorphous Silica Inorganic Fiber, which has a rigidity about 15% higher than that of the conventional one. The weight of the diaphragm is reduced to the same level as that of pulp cone. This reduces resistance, provides fast response to pulse signals, and improves resolution.

The mid-range is equipped with 10 cm cone type mid-range.
New Aramid Hybrid Cone is also used in the mid-range, and Aramid Hybrid FRP mixed with organic fiber Aramid and inorganic fiber amorphous silica with approximately 15% increased strength is used.

A 2.5 cm dome-shaped tweeter is installed in the high range.
The diaphragm is made of H. D. (High Damping) alloy D. U. D. The HD alloy satisfies the conflicting requirements of light weight and high rigidity at a high level and has excellent characteristics of suppressing natural sound. This material is made of Diatone's unique D. U. D. (DIATONE Unified Diaphragm) structure to realize a wide response band and high response speed to input.
By adopting a high-rigidity frame structure D. M. (direct mount) in which the frame part of the magnetic circuit is mounted directly on the baffle, unwanted resonance is suppressed.

A crimping wiring method is adopted for the network section, and the wiring after the input terminal is independent between each unit to prevent loss of power supply and deterioration of hearing characteristics due to the wiring system.
In addition, laminated oriented cores are used for the coils, oxygen-free copper wires are used for the wires, and large screws are used for the input terminals to reduce signal loss.

The enclosure is made of particleboards, and the interior is designed with a distributed resonance design that suppresses resonance modes by utilizing measurement and analysis techniques such as vibration analysis.
In addition, the two side round baffle with R at both ends of the front baffle prevents the diffraction phenomenon of sound.

There was a special speaker stand sold separately.
This stand uses a solid wood block type with laminated wood for the left and right legs to increase rigidity.
