Color
WhiteCarbon Dome Tweeter
Carbon Dome tweeters deliver a dramatic improvementon the aluminium double dome tweeter, raising the breakup threshold to 47kHz, for pinpoint imaging accuracy and detail. The closest performance to our Diamond Dome Tweeters.
Solid Body Tweeter
Our redesigned Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top housing. A more elongated form incorporates a longer tubeloading system to produce an even more free and open sound. The decoupled housing is milled from a single solid block of aluminium to better resist resonance.
Continuum Cone
Continuum is a woven composite that blends control with flexibility. The result is breathtaking clarity. Hear voices, guitars and bass instruments with precision and transparency.
Biomimetic Suspension
Biomimetic Suspension revolutionises midrange cone performance by greatly reducing the unwanted air pressure and coloration that a conventional fabric spider can generate. The result? Midrange transparency you wouldn’t believe possible.
Decoupled Midrange
The Continuum midrange driver is mounted on a shock absorber, ensuring minimal interference from the operation of the loudspeaker’s bass drivers. Less noise means greater clarity.
Aerofoil Bass
Advanced computer modeling carbon fiber and a syntactic core are used to produce a cone with maximum stiffness where it’s needed most. This optimised shape means the cone displays pistonic behaviour further up the audible range, producing precise, controlled and utterly lifelike bass.
Curved Baffle
This allows the midrange and bass drivers to be located in individual housings that sit proud of the speaker baffle. When combined with the curvature of the structure, this approach reduces the audible impact of the cabinet, creating a cleaner, more open and more immersive sound.
Finishes
This model is available in Gloss Black, Mocha and Satin White.
Magnetic Grills
Each model includes magnetic speaker grills.
Step up from 703S3
Looking for a performance step up? The 702 S3 adds a third bass driver for increased power, weight and output. The entire cabinet sits on an integral plinth with a downward firing port for greater bass extension.
