Are Your Speakers Still Driving A RattleTrap?
We've eliminated one of the greatest sources of speaker distortion. The conventional paper cone.
We replaced it with an aluminum honeycomb core. Then we coated it with a glass fiber reinforced skin. And the result was music to our ears. For the first time, we had sound reproduction free of unwanted vibration.
The greatest single improvement of this design is in the quality of bass response. It not only extends it, but makes it more powerful by freeing it from spurious vibrations.
This improvement is only possible because of the in credible combination of both lightness and rigidity of the honeycomb material. With it, we've achieved a level of performance that no conventional paper cone can match.
At that point, it would have been easy to quit. The sound sounded perfect to a lot of people. But not to us. So, we coupled our new cone with our patented FN iron ring. And there went 20 dB of magnetic distortion.
Next we went to work on the cabinet. We eliminated the negative effect of sound diffraction at and around the speaker frames by mounting them flush, with the baffle surface flat to the edge of the cabinet. Finally, we had the sound just where we wanted it.
Then, we surrounded our speakers with hand-rubbed walnut and a black, semi transparent grille. So, their look is now every bit as impressive as the sound they produce.
Our new Honeycomb Speaker Line is thought to be the most perfect way to repro duce perfect sound.
It ought to be. We've been driving toward perfection for a long time.
