Commentary
The first SANSUI speaker system was announced at the same time as the SP-100. It was developed with the aim of making sound so natural that speakers are not conscious of it.
A 30 cm cone type woofer is installed in the low range.
We have developed a slightly thick, hard cone paper, a cross roll edge, and a magnetic circuit with a magnetic flux density of 10,000 gauss.
Two 12 cm cone type skokers are mounted in the middle area.
The rear face has a sealed structure to eliminate mutual interference with other units.
Two horn type tweeters are installed in the high range.
The network uses a specially designed air-core coil of 12dB/oct. utilizing Sansui's transformer technology.
In addition, it is equipped with 3 step switching type tap type level control, and unlike the conventional volume type, there is no DC resistance, so the damping characteristic does not deteriorate.
The enclosure uses a bass reflex system with a pipe duct, and the sound absorbing material inside is glass wool of 25 mm thickness to suppress standing waves.
The material is a chip board with a thickness of 21 mm, and the exterior is a walnut finish.
A handmade grating is used for the front grill.
