Sonus Faber Homage Vox

SYSTEM
3 way, low spurious vibration optimized, stealth reflex para-aperiodic loading, horizontal loudspeaker system.

CABINET
Lute shape design, multilayer, constrained-mode damping, enclosure formed using hand selected wood layers, quality graded and oriented for carefully optimized resonances control. Sub-structural ribs are strategically placed for absolute rejection of spurious vibrations. “New Era” avional (from “The” experience) exo-squeleton clamp structure inhibiting the residual resonances of the wooden structure.

TWEETER
29XTR3. A Sonus faber designed 29 mm moving coil driver. The ultra dynamic linearity is given by the new Neodymium motor system.

MIDRANGES
Sonus faber M15XTR. A totally Sonus faber designed 150 mm ultra dynamic linearity midrange. CCAW wire is used on a composite former “eddy current free” voice coil. The dynamically linear magnetic field motor incorporates triple Kellog/Goeller rings. A special custom diaphragm is made with a real time air dried non pressed blend of traditional cellulose pulp, kapok, kenaf and other natural fibers, developed according to the most natural sound. To further inhibit any residual cone coloration we are using a transparent viscous surface damping coating. Special coaxial anti-compressor are used, designed to remove cavity resonance and distortions.

WOOFERS 
180 mm, lightweight elastomer foam damped Aluminium/Magnesium alloy cone driver in an acoustically amorphous “stealth reflex” chamber. A long-throw motor system with a 1,5” controlled “eddy current” voice coil is implemented for high speed, performance and linearity. Special coaxial anti-compressor are used, designed to remove cavity resonance and distortions.

CROSS-OVER 
Non-resonant “progressive slope” design, optimized amplitude/phase response for optimal space/time performance. “Paracross topology” on both tweeter hi-pass and midrange band pass, cross-over points 250 Hz – 1.800 Hz. Highest quality components are used including Mundorf Evo Oil capacitors and Jantzen inductors.

FREQUENCY RESPONSE    50 Hz – 30.000 Hz, tuning port included.

SENSITIVITY    89 dB SPL (2.83 V/1m).

NOMINAL IMPEDANCE    4 ohm.

SUGGESTED AMPLIFIER POWER OUTPUT 30W – 300W, without clipping.   

LONG-TERM MAXIMUM INPUT VOLTAGE (IEC-268-5)    20V rms.

DIMENSIONS    310x825x390 mm (HxWxD).

WEIGHT     37 Kg – net weight / 43 Kg – shipping weight.
