13Features

•Application of new cabinet research features nineteen separate aperiodically damped internal chambers in three distinct speaker cabinets for superior resonance control.

•Advanced light weight driver diaphragm materials minimize energy storage and time-domain distortion.

•High-definition tweeter and midrange have ultra-light concave ceramic dome diaphragms.

•Extremely stiff and light Nomex-Kelvar Woofer and Subwoofer cones provide unmatched stiffness and high energy transient accuracy.

•Each driver individually tested and matched for optimum performance.

•Moderate impedance characteristic allows for ideal interface with any amplifier.

•Star-grounding techniques eliminate signal modulation.

•Crossover circuitry is hard-wired with surface-only conductors, eliminating deleterious sonic effects of printed-circuit boards.

•Exceptionally low noise, highly reactive induction technology reduces inter-driver jitter, resulting in state-of-the-art micro-dynamics.

•Direct harness wiring to drivers, with oversize barrier strips and screw terminals at crossover connections for maximum signal transfer.

•Crossover elements meticulously oriented to minimize interaction of magnetic fields.

•Polypropylene and coaxially wound polystyrene capacitors used exclusively to minimize energy storage.

•Newly developed proprietary damping circuits control each driver's electrical parameters, reducing interaction with the amplifier.

•Crossover circuitry housed in a rigid external enclosure, providing maximum isolation from vibrations.

•Constrained-mode damping in golden section laminations absorb cabinet vibrations.

•Six-inch thick front panel supplies acoustically inert wave-launch platform.

•Acoustically-engineered beveled anti-diffraction felts minimize reflective and diffractive effects.

•Distinctive faceted cabinet design provides optimal polar characteristics.
