Special Features | CST* Coaxial Driver (*Coherent Source Transducer) SOUND IN VIVID TRUE COLORS TAD’s micro CST* Driver, created to produce truly natural sound. With the 14cm CST Driver already having a proven record of success, the 9cm micro driver has been made even more compact in pursuit of the point sound source concept. In addition, the directional characteristics of the coaxially configured midrange and tweeter have been matched to eliminate audio interference. The tweeter diaphragm represents a superior standard of design, produced from lightweight, high-rigidity beryllium. Over a wide band from 420Hz to 60kHz it delivers outstanding stable sound localization and a natural sound field space. *CST: Coherent Source Transducer MACS* Bass Driver (*Multi-Layered Aramid Composite Shell) INCREDIBLE, EXPANSIVE MID AND BASS The 16cm woofer employs the new MACC* Diaphragm that has enhanced strength and low internal loss for ideal vibration characteristics, as well as a magnetic circuit with outstanding linear drive characteristics. This diaphragm employs Aramid fabric and non-woven materials that are separately formed then laminated, achieving rich and smooth mid and bass tones free of coloration with excellent linearity. *MACC: Multi-Layered Aramid Composite Cone Bi-Directional ADS* Port (*Aero-Dynamic Slot) RICH AND NATURAL LOW TONES An innovative approach to achieving ideal sound: the Bi-Directional ADS* Port. Slit-shaped ports are positioned on both of the enclosure’s side panels with flared openings to the front and rear. The symmetrical front-back, left-right layout eliminates the effects of unwanted sound from the port as well as standing waves within the enclosure. Considering the compact size, you’ll be amazed at the rich and powerful sound field that will fill your listening room. *Bi-Directional ADS: Bi-Directional Aero-Dynamic Slot |
