The various models differ by their size, while their final configuration is defined by your choice of Center Driver and Finishing.
Center drivers, baffles, cables, even crossovers parts; all easily interchangeable and upgradeable giving you the freedom to explore multiple models and sonic options.
BESPOKE CENTER DRIVERS
For reliable music reproduction and overall seamless sonic blend
Our center drivers offering covers three major genres of audio drivers technology, full-range, horns and mid/tweeter. Each offers it’s unique sonic features to allow you to choose the one for best match to your sonic and music DNA, your room acoustics and your favorite audio gear.
BAFFLES
With years of experience and customers in different climate environments, we have narrowed our baffle materials to three types that excel to perform even in high vibrations scenarios, 3/4” High Density Fiberboards (or Plywood), 3/4” three layers Bamboo or Wood sheets, 7/8” genuine German Oak (with anti-vibration inserts).
Their unique finishing will compliment their music performances, and both will blend naturally with the life-style of your room, your office, or your cave
HDF/Plywood baffles are finished to matte or gloss, while Bamboo and wood baffles are cut to maintain the grain along the speakers and are oiled.
In addition, for desired custom finishes, please contact us for an offer and a quote.
D’APPOLITO DESIGN
For organic, no-fatigue music experience, and long listening music sessions
A loudspeaker configuration developed by and named for Joe D’Appolito, in which a high frequency driver, or tweeter, is positioned between two midrange or low frequency drivers that each cover the same frequency range. This is the case with our Trio and Quintet speakers. The two 15” woofers are connected in parallel and positioned in a vertical symmetry around the Center Driver. This configuration defines the ‘acoustical center of mass’ exactly at the center of the speaker, that then becomes kind of a large size ‘source-point’ speaker. This acoustical symmetry is maintained thru the entire frequency range and the result is 1) sense of transparency, realism and no fatigue and 2) an absence of any sudden changes in directivity with frequency. This may not mean much for monitors where there is a limited listening area, but in a typical room where a large percentage of the sound is reflected by the room, these effects are dramatic and help the so-called ‘speakers disappearing act’
HIGH EFFICIENCY
For effortless and dynamic sonic performances with any amplification
Duet15, Trio15 and Quintet15 are high efficiency, 96db speakers, and as such they can play with amps starting with as low as 2.5w. This makes all 15″ speakers ‘friendly’ with Tubes and Class A amps.
They are highly responsive and when fed by high power solid state amps they easily accept authority and control, and reveal the original dynamic range of the recordings and the tiniest musical nuances.
With time, the sonic performances of our speakers with low power amps made them a prime choice for many owners of tube amps, tubes and tube amp manufacturers and professional reviewers alike.
“I have been pinching and kicking myself for the past several weeks as I have been romancing the Trio15 Horn1; pinching myself to see is not an illusion, that the experience is as magical as I’m hearing, and kicking myself because I have been a reviewer for more than 12 years and only now I’m relishing lower power High End in a big way”,
