Sound
Sound for the whole room.
Up-firing woofer, two radiators and automatic room tuning. The point is not to be loud in one seat, it is to be right in all of them.

Sound
Sound in every direction.
Most speakers point at one seat. Column points at the ceiling, and the room carries the sound out to everyone in it.
360°
even coverage, 2.1 dB spread across a 5 × 4 m room
01 · Driver
A 76 mm woofer, firing up.
The woofer sits under the dial and fires straight up into a shaped deflector that spreads the sound evenly in a ring.
76 mm
long-throw woofer with a 12 mm excursion
02 · Radiators
Two radiators for the low end.
Two passive radiators face left and right. They move air with the woofer, so bass stays full without a bigger box.
48 Hz
low-frequency extension at −6 dB
03 · Tuning
It listens to the room.
A microphone under the knit measures the room when you switch it on and adjusts the tuning for walls, corners or open air.
