The sound quality of the Audiophile line complements perfectly our highly acclaimed Series 3 amplifiers, providing warm midrange, and smooth yet detailed treble. This combination offers high-level capability with ultra-low distortion and a warm, musical sound character often lacking in mass-produced speakers.

The chassis on the 2-way systems is of cast resin, mechanically stable and non-resonant. Through careful design of the chassis and magnetic components a surprisingly shallow mounting depth is achieved.

The cone is of an aluminium and glass fibre compound, offering high rigidity and helping with better than usual driver efficiency leading to excellent midrange quality and fast midbass.

The centre magnet pole is copper clad to improve the phase response of the driver, providing superior midrange neutrality.

Our crossover uses a high quality coil and a polypropylene tweeter capacitor to give excellent clarity and freedom from distortion even at high volume.

Technical Information:
System type: 2 way component
Manufactured: Drive units, Hand made in Italy
Crossover, Hand made by Genesis in England
Frequency response: -6dB @ 77 Hz & 22 kHz , (15 litre sealed box).
Power rating: 80 watts RMS. Matching amp from 30 -100 Genesis watts.
Efficiency: 89dB for 1 watt @ 1 metre ( 92dB 2.83V @ 1metre )
Element sizes: 13cm / 5.25" bass/mid, 2.5cm / 1.0" silk dome tweeter
Mounting depth: 54mm / 10mm
Construction:

Bass / mid: Aluminuim coated Glassfibre cone with butyl rubber surround driven by a 2-layer voice coil wound on 1" aluminium former. The magnet assembly is vented to assist VC cooling.
The chassis is made from a non resonant mineral filled resin.
Centre dome is acoustically transparent fabric to allow HF from centre of cone through.
Centre magnet pole is Copper Clad to give smooth and extended midrange response.

Tweeter: Coated silk fabric is used for the tweeter dome. This is driven by a ferrofluid damped coil.

Crossover: The crossover feeds the tweeter via a RIFA polypropylene capacitor for excellent treble clarity.
The midbass is rolled off at 6dB/ octave, and the tweeter at 12dB/octave.
The tweeter is protected by a polyswitch device.
This case is in aluminium to dissipate any heat generated by the network, and to provide both shielding and cosmetic integration.
Installation: The shallow mounting depth of the tweeter allows easy installation in kick panels.

The midbass is suitable for small enclosure mounting, but also gives good results in free air applications.
