Commentary
This speaker system uses a newly developed top-mount system to create a comfortable space for sound.
A 16 cm pure cross carbon cone type woofer is used for the low range.
In addition to reducing the weight of the vibration system, we have strengthened the magnetic circuit by increasing the size of the magnet to achieve clearer low-frequency reproduction.
In addition, a newly developed ADM frame with increased damping capacity is used for the entire frame and field cover to suppress squeal.
A 2.5 cm plasma carbonated titanium dome type tweeter is used for the high range.
The surface of lightweight, high-rigidity titanium is hardened by the plasma method, and the hardness is about 5 times that of pure titanium. Moreover, the high-frequency resonance of the high-rigidity material is eliminated by the unique resonance cancellation structure.
Alnico magnet is used for the magnetic circuit.
The network reduces interference between network elements and signal paths by separating the woofer and tweeter on separate network boards.
The enclosure uses a top-mount system in which a tweeter is installed independently on the top of the cabinet.
This eliminates the baffle plate reflections that affect the tweeter region playback in conventional speakers and improves the high-range playback.
In addition, the positions of the tweeter and the woofer are adjusted in time by measuring impulse input.
The material is a 25 mm thick baffle plate for higher rigidity.
