The concept behind the system N°7 lies in
a simple fact: in some cases, in some vehicles, and due to improper
loudspeakers location, the classic 2-way configuration often ends
up altering the sonic imaging perception.
The System N°7 offers a 100% acoustical
solution in order to obtain perfect staging and a realistic sound
imaging in the most challenging circumstances.
We developed a real midrange driver, the ultra-compact
3 W2 Be. Only 3’’ (80mm) diameter and 3.15’’ (35mm)
depth, the 3 W2 Be is intended to be installed on the dashboard close
to the Beryllium tweeter. Numerous listening sessions told us that
this midrange driver needs to function well below 200Hz in order
to cover the range of directional sounds and to provide seamless
blending with the 6 W3 Be 6.5’’ (165mm) woofers installed
in the doors, for it is imperious that all sounds must originate
from the dashboard area to render a truly accurate and stable sonic
image.The 3 W2 Be midrange driver can also be used in a kick panel.
Built like the Utopia Be line woofers, with
a specific W cone for good damping, the 3W2 Be retains the same injected
compact alloy basket. It is equipped with a 1’’ (25mm)
diameter and .3’’ (8mm) height Neodymium magnet, to insure
a solid reproduction of low midrange without distortion. That concept,
similar to our woofers, brings exceptional response down to 180Hz
in a limited space of only 0.018 cft (0.5 liters) . Here the 3 W2
Be shows its superiority over other types of midrange drivers, such
as flexible dome midranges which do not effectively match its low
end response and its high energy and fantastic dynamics.
The 6 W3 Be woofer is specifically calculated
for that system in order to deliver optimal bass performance and,
has been specially designed to deliver its optimum performance in
vehicle doors.
