Small desktop speakers can be made to produce a grand sound, to achieve a better sound-to-space ratio. The SP3 series employs a 3.5-inch carbon fiber woofer, larger than typical products in its class. These larger woofers have an inherent advantage over smaller woofers in dynamics, projecting a larger soundstage, and other sonic attributes. Whether watching movies or listening to music, this woofer is truly capable of expressing the grandness of the audio even at louder volumes.
Carbon fiber is extremely strong and highly rigid yet lightweight – the ideal properties for a speaker driver. The light weight of carbon fiber allows the woofer to have rapid transient response, while carbon fiber’s high strength and rigidity reduce non-linear distortion by minimizing unwanted secondary vibrations when the driver is moving when producing sound. Altogether, the carbon fiber material of the woofer helps to reproduce sound faithfully and lets you be more immersed in your high fidelity listening.
Each fiber of carbon fiber in the SP3 series is only 0.007mm thick - the thickness of a single hair. These fibers are braided together, which helps to enhance sound quality by ensuring a wrinkle-free diaphragm as well as making the diaphragm stronger and more resistant to cracks after extended driver movement and usage.
“To achieve better sound, we use special damping rubber for the woofer in order to retain a transparent sound. This allows for realistic and highly detailed vocals as well as highly controlled and quick bass to shine through.”
