Features

Features

 Newly Designed Passive Crossover Network allows

detailed imaging and pin-point sound staging of the critical high
frequencies.



Aluminum Dome Tweeter with Neodymium Magnet

featured in the KS25 provides a smooth high frequency
response with fast, detailed and spatially-correct imaging.



Titanium Dome Tweeter with Neodymium Magnet

featured in the KS20 provides a polished high frequency
response with agile, meticulous and spatially-correct imaging.



PEN™Dome Tweeter with Neodymium Magnet

featured in the KS13 provides a silky high frequency response
with quick, precise and spatially-correct imaging. PEN is an
acronym for the space age material “biaxially oriented
polypropylene naphthalate film”--your parents’ tax dollars
probably paid for its development, you might as well enjoy it.

 High-Power Tinsel Lead Wires eliminate broken leads and

power loss, due to the common use of “insufficient-gauge” lead
wires.



Felt Damping Plug behind the Tweeter’s Diaphragm

dissipates standing waves, quickens spectral decay and
improves the transient response of the driver.



High-Temp Polyimide Film Voice Coil Former

improves sonic and conductive properties, and prevents
thermal-electrical meltdown.



Ferro-Fluid

™

cooled tweeter voice-coil extends the high

frequency transducer’s life span.
