Description

Features a non-resonant cone and dust cap structure, dynamic linear suspension, SD-1 magnet system, “Grasshopper” cast aluminium chassis with maximised air flow and resonance terminating mounting system. Less resonance in all structures, lower compression and higher linearity, faster termination of excess energy and higher sound pressure capability gives Scan-Speak more musical and dynamic capability.

Features

  • Patented Symmetrical Drive Motor Design
  • Sliced Cone (Controls Cone Breakups)
  • Low-Loss linear suspension
  • Low Damping SBR Rubber Surround
  • Coated Paper Cone
  • Large Ferrite Magnet System
