Commentary
A polished 2-way speaker system that continues to pursue "sound image realism".
A 32 cm diameter cone type woofer is used for the low frequency band and a 156 mm diameter magnet realizes high efficiency of 94dB/W/m.
Also, high input resistance is obtained by using a thermosetting self-bonding voice coil.
The tweeter uses a 6.6 cm balanced drive unit with a B-alloy (boron alloy) diaphragm.
The voice coil uses a thermosetting (self-bonding) copper-clad aluminum wire to provide high input resistance and improved reliability.
The enclosure has a symmetrical design for sound localization.
