X-ART tweeter, handmade in Berlin |
|
The air velocity ratio of 4:1 during the sound generation by folded X-ART membrane | Direct, fast response in the high-range even with complex transients |
Ultra-light but extremely dimensionally stable woofer material (HexaCone) | Excellent transient response even at high sound levels without breakup of the diaphragm |
Horizontal 3-way system with 2 x 9" woofers and 1 x 6” midrange | Very high resolution of the stereo image and extremely wide stereo base |
Spacious bass reflex ports on the front | – Bass reproduction with very low compression – Allows positioning close to walls |
Highly efficient PWM amplifier for the woofers coupled with an A/B amplifier for X-ART tweeter | Low-distortion amplification at both low and high volume levels |
Linear frequency response of 28 Hz to 50 kHz | Unbiased reproduction in a wide frequency band |
Maximum peak sound pressure per pair in 1 m ≥ 128 dB | Powerful, compression-free sound reproduction even at very high sound levels |
Room acoustic adjustments via the SX Panel | Allows optimal adaptation to acoustically difficult listening environments or individual preferences |
Analog XLR input | Optimized for balanced line signals |
Directional sound radiation in vertical plane | Reduction of early reflections on the surfaces of, e.g. mixing consoles, desks, etc. |
2 years warranty with optional extension to 3 years with the registration of the product | Full repair service if required for 5 years |
