Gloss black centre speaker seen from the front without its grille

Coaxial tweeter and midrange

In the middle of the baffle, a coaxial driver places the 25 mm AL-MAC tweeter at the heart of the 152 mm AL-MAG midrange. The midrange uses the patented Dual-Sync continuous flux motor and the tweeter a dual-gap motor, with an OSW waveguide and a PPA lens. Voices stay clear and consistent, even from off-centre seats.

Two CARBON-X woofers

On either side of the coaxial, two 5.5 inch woofers with one-piece CARBON-X cones handle the bass below 700 Hz. Their ART surround and 1.5 inch multi-layer voice coil cope with demanding soundtracks. The speaker reaches down to 47 Hz to the DIN standard.
